Amazon Cognito now supports self-service provisioned API rate limits

Amazon Cognito API Rate Limits Update

Amazon Cognito now allows you to increase or decrease your provisioned API rate limits on demand. You can adjust your rate limits up or down more quickly to match your application’s traffic patterns.

Previously, you had to request an increase through Service Quotas, where requests were manually reviewed. Now, you have a new self-service experience to set your desired Cognito rate limit up to the account-level max limit using the Amazon Cognito console or the new limit provisioning API operations. Rate limit changes take effect immediately.

What to do

• Use the Amazon Cognito console or the new limit provisioning API operations to adjust your rate limits.
• Check the Amazon Cognito pricing page for details on the add-on feature.
• Refer to the developer guide to get started.
