AWS Service Quotas and Limits
Monitor Amazon Web Services quotas that can affect monolayer provisioning and runtime capacity.
Monitor and manage Amazon Web Services (AWS) service quotas to ensure your account has sufficient capacity for monolayer resources.
About Service Quotas
An Amazon Web Services (AWS) service quota is a resource limit for an AWS account in a specific region. The Quotas & Limits dashboard reads AWS metrics and compares them with limits used by monolayer.
The dashboard tracks three quota areas:
- VPCs per Region: Shows virtual private cloud (VPC) usage for isolated environment networks.
- On-Demand Standard Instance vCPUs: Shows virtual central processing unit (vCPU) capacity used by session sandboxes.
- Lambda Concurrent Executions: Shows whether your applied AWS Lambda concurrency quota is below the default account limit.
Important
New or consolidated AWS subaccounts can start with low Lambda and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) limits. Check Quotas & Limits before you create production workloads.
Quota Statuses
This section describes the status labels that appear in the dashboard.
- Healthy: Usage is below 70 percent, or the applied Lambda limit is at least the default limit.
- Warning: Usage is at least 70 percent and below 90 percent.
- Critical: Usage is at least 90 percent, or the applied Lambda limit is below the default limit.
- Unknown: The control plane could not resolve live usage and shows fallback values.
