Throttling
The Data Stores API enforces two types of throttling: requests per minute and throughput. Each experience allows a certain number of requests per minute and a certain amount of data per minute. These limits are enforced for the universe regardless of the number of API keys used.
Unlike the Engine API, these limits do not scale based on user count. Exceeding either one causes the endpoint to return 429 Too Many Requests.
