Quotas in AWS Elemental MediaStore

The Service Quotas console provides information about AWS Elemental MediaStore quotas. Along with viewing the default quotas, you can use the Service Quotas console to request quota increases for adjustable quotas.

The following table describes quotas, formerly referred to as limits, in AWS Elemental MediaStore. Quotas are the maximum number of service resources or operations for your AWS account.

Note

To assign quotas to individual containers within your account, contact AWS Support or your account manager. This option can help you divide up the account-level limits among your containers, to prevent one container from using up your entire quota.
