Quotas and limits
Quotas and limits in Squid are aggregated and set at the Squid application level and aggregated across all environments.
Free Tier
Our Free Tier comes with one free Squid application to build and run so that you can experience Squid Cloud platform's full functionality immediately and without adding in a payment instrument.
The following table shows the resource limits included in the Free Tier. Limits reset each month on the date of your initial sign-up.
Once an organization reaches 80% of the limit on any of these resources, Squid notifies the admin(s) of your organization by email and notifies all organization members through the Squid Cloud Console.
For additional quota or custom quota needs, please contact us.
