Did default number of AWS Elastic Block Store change?

Previously we had default limit for number EBS volumes as 5000. enter image description here

However recently it has been removed from AWS docs.enter image description here

Could someone tell me what is the default limit for number of EBS Volumes now?

Solution

  • AWS now limits your EBS volume usage based upon two factors: Provisioned IOPS and total storage for each storage type.

    You can check your account limits from the AWS Console:

    • Open the Amazon EC2 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/
    • From the navigation bar, select a region
    • From the navigation pane, choose Limits (left hand column)
    • Locate the resource in the list. The Current Limit column displays the current maximum for that resource for your account
