Producer SDK limits - Amazon Kinesis Video Streams
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Producer SDK limits

The following table contains the current limits for values in the Producer Libraries.

Note

Before setting these values, you must validate your inputs. The SDK doesn't validate these limits, and a runtime error occurs if the limits are exceeded.

Value Limit Notes
Max stream count 128 The maximum number of streams that a producer object can create. This is a soft limit (you can request an increase). It guarantees that the producer doesn't accidentally create streams recursively.
Max device name length 128 characters  
Max tag count 50 per stream  
Max stream name length 256 characters  
Min storage size 10 MiB = 10 * 1024 * 1024 bytes  
Max storage size 10 GiB = 10 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 bytes  
Max root directory path length 4,096 characters  
Max auth info length 10,000 bytes  
Max URI string length 10,000 characters  
Max tag name length 128 characters  
Max tag value length 1,024 characters  
Min security token period 30 seconds  
Security token grace period 40 minutes If the specified duration is longer, it's limited to this value.
Retention period 0 or greater than one hour 0 indicates no retention.
Min cluster duration 1 second The value is specified in 100 ns units, which is the SDK standard.
Max cluster duration 30 seconds The value is specified in 100 ns units, which is the SDK standard. The backend API can enforce a shorter cluster duration.
Max fragment size 50 MB For more information, see Kinesis Video Streams service quotas.
Max fragment duration 20 seconds For more information, see Kinesis Video Streams service quotas.
Max connection duration 45 minutes The backend closes the connection after this time. The SDK rotates the token and establishes a new connection within this time.
Max ACK segment length 1,024 characters Maximum segment length of the acknowledgement sent to the ACK parser function.
Max content type string length 128 characters  
Max codec ID string length 32 characters  
Max track name string length 32 characters  
Max codec private data length 1 MiB = 1 * 1024 * 1024 bytes  
Min timecode scale value length 100 ns The minimum timecode scale value to represent the frame timestamps in the resulting MKV cluster. The value is specified in increments of 100 ns, which is the SDK standard.
Max timecode scale value length 1 second The maximum timecode scale value to represent the frame timestamps in the resulting MKV cluster. The value is specified in increments of 100 ns, which is the SDK standard.
Min content view item count 10  
Min buffer duration 20 seconds The value is specified in increments of 100 ns, which is the SDK standard.
Max update version length 128 characters  
Max ARN length 1024 characters  
Max fragment sequence length 128 characters  
Max retention period 10 years
