This article lists some of the most common Microsoft Azure Media Services limits, which are also sometimes called quotas.

21
+
> [!NOTE]
22
+
> For resources that aren't fixed, open a support ticket to ask for an increase in the quotas. Don't create additional Azure Media Services accounts in an attempt to obtain higher limits.

| File size| In some scenarios, there is a limit on the maximum file size supported for processing in Media Services. <sup>(1)</sup> |
<sup>1</sup> The maximum size supported for a single blob is currently up to 5 TB in Azure Blob Storage. Additional limits apply in Media Services based on the VM sizes that are used by the service. The size limit applies to the files that you upload and also the files that get generated as a result of Media Services processing (encoding or analyzing). If your source file is larger than 260-GB, your Job will likely fail.
44
+
45
+
The following table shows the limits on the media reserved units S1, S2, and S3. If your source file is larger than the limits defined in the table, your encoding job fails. If you encode 4K resolution sources of long duration, you're required to use S3 media reserved units to achieve the performance needed. If you have 4K content that's larger than the 260-GB limit on the S3 media reserved units, open a support ticket.

You should not be creating a new Streaming Policy for each Streaming Locator.
