How can we increase the rate limit of goggle dlp api


The rate limit set as 600 req/min by default is very low for our application where we are trying to process millions of records through a Spark job. Even with cluster of 16 nodes and 4 cores we are hitting the rate limit. We plan to have 25 such jobs running in parallel. Can you please suggest how the rate limit can be increased to something like 20k per min
