Maximum number of object storage buckets per cluster
Your description of the limitations of object storage notes that there is currently a limit of 1,000 buckets "per cluster".
Could you elaborate on what "per cluster" means here? Per location perhaps, or something else?

I found the answer in the documentation:
A cluster is defined as all buckets hosted by a unique URL; for example: us-east-1.linodeobjects.com, us-east-2.linodeobjects.com, or eu-central-1.linodeobjects.com.
As of 11th April 2020, Object storage is available in two datacenters with the URLs below:
Newark us-east-1.linodeobjects.com
Frankfurt eu-central-1.linodeobjects.com
Therefore a Linode account can currently have a maximum of 2,000 buckets, spread across these two datacenters with no more 1,000 buckets in each.
