Adobe Experience Cloud Rate Limits

Adobe Experience Cloud is a multi-product platform; rate limits vary per service and per sandbox / tenant. Throttling responses are 429 across the family; sustained excess on Edge Network endpoints can shed to 503. Numeric ceilings are not unified and defer to product-specific docs.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Exponential backoff with jitter; honor Retry-After when present.
Sandbox isolation
Experience Platform throttling is per-sandbox; production and dev sandboxes have independent quotas.
Edge vs control plane
Edge Network endpoints (Target, Edge Network, Web SDK) are tuned for high-RPS visitor traffic; control-plane APIs (Catalog, Schema, Query) are tuned for ops workloads with lower TPS but higher per-call cost.
