Quotas

What Is a Quota?

A quota is a limit on the quantity or capacity of a certain type of service resources available to you. Examples of RAM quotas include the maximum number of resource shares that you can create. Quotas are put in place to prevent excessive resource usage.

If the current resource quota cannot meet your service requirements, you can apply for a higher quota.
