I would like to know more about some limitations that I couldn’t find in the official documentation:

  1. For one app, can one IP have multiple open connections (streams and/or search) using the same credentials? Does this change if it’s premium/paid subscription?

  2. For one app, can multiple IP have multiple open connections (streams and/or search) using the same credentials? Does this change if it’s premium/paid subscription?

I want to understand if say 2+ streamers use the same credentials, is that fine?

It’ll be great if someone helps with this.

I understand that for the free version, there’s a limit of 2 open streams per IP/app, what are the limitations for the premium and also the enterprise editions? Thanks!

So absolutely no one can help with this? @twitter??? This is very poor support, especially from the official Twitter members.

Standard REST Search, Streaming, and Premium are 3 different things that have their own limits.

For streaming, ideally you want 1 stable connection for 1 app on 1 IP. It’s designed to never stop.

Using the same credentials, you are free to make many parallel calls to REST endpoints - each endpoint has it’s own rate limit, so you can call multiple endpoints at the same time without problems, but you may get issues with consistency if you try to call the same endpoint in parallel.

Premium endpoints have their own limits, and since the calls are very limited, it doesn’t make sense to make multiple parallel requests, but you can certainly make Premium calls at the same time as REST calls and while a stream is open, that shouldn’t be a problem, since they’re all separate systems.

Hope that helps!
