> Has anyone pursued a quota increase on the Scale plan beyond the default 500 Egress concurrency limit, and was that process feasible?

You can request an increase to the egress concurrency limit. You should be able to do this from your project settings page, but if not, you can contact support: [Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - #8 by darryncampbell](https://community.livekit.io/t/frequently-asked-questions-faq/46/8)
