Understanding and managing quotas
Rate limiting
When an API rate limit is reached, the service will respond with a ThrottlingException. To better handle rate limiting, AWS recommends implementing exponential backoff and retry strategies in your application.
Time window for quotas
The daily quotas reset on a rolling 24 hour period. Your requests would be throttled e.g. if you have performed 10,000 write actions in the last 24 hours and are trying to perform the 10,001st request. Ensure that your application's usage patterns take this into account to prevent unintentional throttling.
Requesting a quota increase
If the default quotas do not meet your requirements, you can request a quota
increase through the Service Quotas page
