Telemetry data usage requirements

Telemetry data usage requirements

Telemetry syncs between EMS and endpoints transfer data. The amount of data transferred varies significantly between cases and depends on many factors, such as the amount of zero trust network access (ZTNA) tags, the features enabled in the endpoint configuration, and so on.

The following table provides statistics for the average and maximum amounts of data transferred when the Telemetry sync occurs and includes certain events or configuration changes. You may find this information useful for your own sizing and deployment planning. However, this information is not intended to provide a comprehensive overview or exact data for your deployment.
