putParameter

Create or update a parameter in Parameter Store.

Parameter Store throughput defines the number of API transactions per second (TPS) that Systems Manager can process. This applies to GetParameter, GetParameters, and PutParameter API calls for your Amazon Web Services account and Amazon Web Services Region. By default, Parameter Store is configured with a standard throughput quota suitable for low- to moderate-volume workloads. Applications that retrieve configuration data infrequently or operate at smaller scale can use this default setting without additional cost.

For higher-volume workloads, you can enable higher throughput. This increases the maximum number of supported transactions per second for your account and Region. Increased throughput supports applications and workloads that need concurrent access to multiple parameters. If you experience ThrottlingException: Rate exceeded errors, enable higher throughput.
