AWS Systems Manager endpoints and quotas
The following are the service endpoints and service quotas for this service. To connect programmatically to an AWS service, you use an endpoint. For more information, see AWS service endpoints. Service quotas, also referred to as limits, are the maximum number of service resources or operations for your AWS account. For more information, see AWS service quotas.

Service Quotas
| Capability | Resource | Default |

For more information about activating on-premises instances for use in your hybrid environment, see Create a Managed-Instance Activation in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide. For more information about enabling advanced instances, see Using the Advanced-Instances Tier. |
| Inventory |
Inventory data collected per instance per call |
1 MB This maximum adequately supports most inventory collection scenarios. When this quota is reached, no new inventory data is collected for the instance. Inventory data previously collected is stored until the expiration. |
| Inventory |

50 This is the maximum number of attributes within the custom inventory type. |
| Inventory |
Inventory data expiration |
30 days If you terminate an instance, inventory data for that instance is deleted immediately. For running instances, inventory data older than 30 days is deleted. If you need to store inventory data longer than 30 days, you can use AWS Config to record history or periodically query and upload the data to an Amazon S3 bucket. For more information, see, Recording Amazon EC2 managed instance inventory in the AWS Config Developer Guide. |
