Chronosphere Rate Limits

Chronosphere publishes throttling BEHAVIOUR in detail and throttling NUMBERS not at all. The limits are per-tenant and derived from the customer's contracted capacity, so the docs describe the meter, the trigger and the consequence precisely while the value of every limit lives in the contract and in an in-product dashboard. There are no published numeric thresholds to record and no rate-limit response headers at all.

Chronosphere Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Chronosphere on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 5 rate-limit definitions, measuring PromQL selectors evaluated per second, READS = sum(DATAPOINTS_RETURNED_FOR_SERIES), minimum 60 data points per series, total compute resources available for log queries, and percentage of total available query resources.

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled and detail.

Tagged areas include AIOps, Observability, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

Grace window
Neither query limit begins dropping until it has been exceeded for 10 consecutive minutes.
Drop, not queue (metrics queries)
Metrics query overload sheds an indiscriminate subset of queries. A client cannot assume its own request will survive, and cannot tell a dropped query from a failed one without the 429.
Queue, not drop (log queries)
Log queries exceeding the global limit are queued and run when resources free up.
