Testing (Rapid Access Service)
A cloud account comes with the following default maximums:
- 2 instances
- 4 virtual CPUs
- 15360 MB RAM
- 1 external IP address
- 40 GB persistent storage
- 2 volumes
- 2 snapshots
These limits are intended to support development, experimentation, and small, temporary batch workloads. For more details and anticipated changes, see Rapid Access Service. Requests for more resources should be submitted through the national Resource Allocation Competition.
