Single-connection bandwidth throttling
Accessing files (objects) in Object Storage Service (OSS) can consume a large amount of bandwidth. On clients where traffic shaping is difficult to control, this can affect other applications. To avoid this issue, you can use the single-connection bandwidth throttling feature provided by OSS to control traffic during operations such as file uploads and downloads. This ensures sufficient network bandwidth for other applications.
Usage notes
Include the x-oss-traffic-limit parameter in PutObject, AppendObject, PostObject, CopyObject, UploadPart, UploadPartCopy, and GetObject requests and specify a throttling value. The value must be between 819200 and 838860800. The unit is bit/s.
Throttle client requests
You can throttle client requests only using software development kits (SDKs). The following code provides examples of how to throttle upload or download requests using common SDKs. For code examples that use other SDKs, see SDK overview.
Simple upload and download throttling
Multipart upload throttling
Throttle bandwidth using a file URL
For files with public-read or public-read-write permissions, you can append the throttling parameter x-oss-traffic-limit=<value> to the file URL to throttle access. For example, the URL https://examplebucket.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/video.mp4?x-oss-traffic-limit=819200 specifies that the download speed for the video.mp4 file is throttled to 100 KB/s. The following example shows the throttling effect:
The actual download speed is 96.0 KB/s, close to the configured throttling threshold of 100 KB/s. The total file size is 29.9 MB, with 2.3 MB downloaded and approximately 5 minutes remaining.
Throttle bandwidth using a signed URL
When you use an SDK to generate a signed URL to access a private file, you must include the throttling parameter in the signature calculation. The following code provides examples of how to add the throttling parameter to a signed URL using common SDKs. For code examples that use other SDKs, see SDK overview.
