Bright Data Adaptive Capacity Control

Overview

Bright Data does not publish one global proxy request limit. Build separate controllers for proxy traffic and dataset jobs, honor current provider signals, and keep target, cost, and policy ceilings stricter than capacity.

Prerequisites

• A workload profile with target, product, and idempotency classes
• Observed latency, error, and provider-code samples
• Owner-approved concurrency, byte, cost, and wall-time ceilings

Instructions

Step 1: Measure the lane

Read recent receipts and Grep for 429, Retry-After, provider error codes, active dataset jobs, per-IP concentration, and queue depth. Do not infer capacity from successful bursts alone.

Step 2: Separate controllers
