Hi,

According to IBM, it is a best practice to keep that number under 30, for readability, easy debug and server load.

You can use more of course.

1.Minimize the usage of Transformer(instead of use copy,modify,filter,row generator)
2.Reduce the number of lookups in job design use not more than 20 stages in a job
3.There is no limit for no of stages like 20 or 30 but we can break the job into small jobs then we use dataset stages to store data

etc.....

The first of these has not been true since version 8.1.1.
What is the provenance of the other two?
