Object storage limits
Object storage limits
By default, object storage has no limits, you can store any amount of files as long as there is money in your balance to pay for the storage.
To control the amount of downloaded data and resource consumption, you can set a limit on the amount of data that is stored in all containers in the project.You can set limits for a specific container separately, see the Container Limits instruction for details.
If the limit is set:
- when 90% of the storage space from the set limit is occupied, a warning message will appear in the control panel;
- when the limit is reached, a notification will appear in the control panel, and the repository will return an error when you try to load objects. To continue loading, free up space or increase the limit.
