    Article summary

    Wasabi has a fair use policy mechanism to ensure that all Wasabi customers can successfully utilize the service regardless of service load conditions. This fair use policy mechanism prevents individual Wasabi user accounts from consuming excess system resources at the expense of other Wasabi user accounts. 

    For each Wasabi user account, the fair use policy mechanism dynamically controls the amount of concurrent API requests as well as the upload, download, and system database resources. The resource allocations for each Wasabi user account depend on the storage volume in your Wasabi account. For example, user accounts with 1 PB or more of storage are going to receive a higher resource allocation than user accounts with 1 TB.
