This section describes the quotas and constraints on ELB resources.
Quotas put limits on the quantity of resources, such as the maximum number of ECSs or EVS disks that you can create.
Resource | Description | Default Quota |
|---|---|---|
Load balancers | Load balancers per account | 50 |
Listeners | Listeners per account | 100 |
Forwarding policies | Forwarding policies per account | 500 |
Backend server groups | Backend server groups per account | 500 |
Certificates | Certificates per account | 120 |
Backend servers | Backend servers per account | 500 |
Listeners per load balancer | Listeners that can be added to a load balancer | 50 |
Forwarding policies per listener | Maximum number of forwarding policies that can be added to a listener | 100 |
The quotas apply to a single account.
In addition to quotas described in ELB Resource Quotas, some other resources that you can use are also limited.
You can call APIs to query quotas of the resources described in Table 2 by referring to the "Querying Quotas" section in Elastic Load Balance API Reference.
