Glacier’s rate limiting is handled using a weighted scoring system. This allows users to make more basic requests and will better allow Glacier to handle more computationally complex requests.

Rate Limit Tiers The maximum rate-limiting score for a user depends on their subscription level and is delineated in the following table:

Subscription Level Per Minute Limit Per Day Limit

Subscription LevelPer Minute LimitPer Day Limit
Free8,0002,00,000
Base10,0003,750,000
Growth14,00011,200,000
Pro20,00025,000,000
To update your subscription level use the AvaCloud Portal
