Learn what a space quota is, what type of information you will find on the Space Quotas page in the SAP BTP cockpit, and what you can do with a space quota in the Cloud Foundry environment.
A space quota defines the upper consumption limit for all resources in a space, such as:
-
Memory
-
Route
-
Services
-
Instance memory
-
Application instances
Assigning a space quota to a space is optional. A space without an assigned space quota shares the consumption limits defined in the org quota with all the other spaces part of the org.
When working with space quotas, keep in mind the following additional specifics:
-
You can create unlimited space quotas in an organization (org), but you can assign only one space quota to a space at a time.
-
If a space quota is larger than the org quota, the org quota limit is applied.
Example: If you create a space quota with memory of 2048MB but the org quota has a total memory of 1024MB, then the space is going to use the org quota instead.
-
Also, you can have only one space quota named "dev" in an org, but two orgs can have two separate space quotas with the same name "dev".
-
When creating a space quota, you can define whether a space quota allows you to use paid services within a space.
To create, edit, or assign space quotas in an org, you must have the Org Manager role.
