Limitations of S3

We recommend loading objects larger than 1 GB using segmented loading via the S3 API or Swift API.

Storage limits and vault limits you set on your own.

Limitations of API requests

The limits are for a single buck.If your load profile exceeds these limits, we recommend distributing the load among multiple buckets at a rate of no more than 250 requests per second (RPS) per buck.

If the limit is exceeded, the server will return a response with the code 429 Too Many Requests and the message Rate Limit exceeded.
