azure-quotas
Check and manage Azure quotas and usage across regions for deployment planning and capacity validation.
- Azure CLI (
az quota) is the only reliable method for checking quotas; REST API and Portal are unreliable and show misleading "No Limit" values that do not indicate unlimited capacity - Supports quota discovery, usage tracking, limit checking, and increase requests across compute, network, storage, and container services
- Quota resource names do not map 1:1 to ARM resource types; use
az quota listto discover correct names by matchinglocalizedValuedescriptions - Includes multi-region comparison workflows to find regions with available capacity and troubleshooting guidance for unsupported providers like Cosmos DB
Azure Quotas - Service Limits & Capacity Management
AUTHORITATIVE GUIDANCE — Follow these instructions exactly for quota management and capacity validation.
Overview
What are Azure Quotas?
Azure quotas (also called service limits) are the maximum number of resources you can deploy in a subscription. Quotas:
- Prevent accidental over-provisioning
- Ensure fair resource distribution across Azure
- Represent available capacity in each region
- Can be increased (adjustable quotas) or are fixed (non-adjustable)
Key Concept: Quotas = Resource Availability
If you don't have quota, you cannot deploy resources. Always check quotas when planning deployments or selecting regions.
