    Hi Jerome, Here are the answers to your questions,

    1. Intervals. Our DCIM system collects power draw data from the power monitoring system at the edge every 15 minutes. We collect environmental data, such as temperature and humidity, every 60 minutes. For other data on the mechanical and electrical assets, the interval varies depending on the asset manufacturer limit.
    2. API limit. We currently limit the number of API calls from an application to 1000 per day. We do not have a limit on token creation but may implement such limitations in the future.
    3. Streaming API. We do plan to support an endpoint inside the Equinix cloud. Such a plan has yet to be placed on a timeline.

    Regarding the error you got, you may hit the daily limit I mentioned above. Please check.
