Quotas are the bounds that limit how many resources a company or project can create — such as instances, total CPU or RAM, attached storage, and API request rates.
Why quotas exist
Quotas keep a shared cloud predictable and protect tenants from noisy-neighbor and runaway-cost scenarios. They are applied per company and, where relevant, per project.
What quotas typically bound
- Compute*: number of instances, vCPUs and memory.
- Storage*: total block and object capacity.
- Networking*: addresses, firewalls and load balancers.
- APIs*: request rates and concurrency.
Availability
Quotas are planned as part of the Ottili Cloud platform build-out and are not yet enforced or self-service-visible. This page describes the intended model rather than a live limit you can read today. When quota management becomes available through Early Access, the real defaults and how to request increases will be documented and the feature status shown on the product and status pages.
We do not publish specific quota numbers that are not yet defined.
