Queries per second (QPS) for a single queue

3000

When you call the BatchSendMessage operation to send requests to a queue, the BatchSendMessage QPS can be calculated based on the following formula: QPS = Number of BatchSendMessage requests per second × Number of messages. Assume that you call the BatchSendMessage operation to initiate 100 requests in one second to send 10 messages, the QPS of a single queue is calculated based on the following formula: 100 × 10 = 1000.

The following table describes the limits on MNS topics.
