Projects in xneelo Cloud

When you sign up for xneelo Cloud, a unique, isolated cloud domain is created for your account.

Within your domain you can create projects, and the cloud usage from these projects is billed to your account.


  • What are projects?

    A cloud project is a container that groups a set of cloud resources together in a single workspace.

    Note: During beta, only Account Owners can log in and manage cloud projects.





  • Project limits (quotas)

    Project limits help us regulate the use of our platform so we can maintain consistent service levels for all Cloud customers. 

    Project limits refer to the amount of cloud resources that are allowed to be provisioned within a project. These set quotas determine the amount of compute, storage and network resources you can create. 

    Limits are set on both the size and number of cloud resources. 

    Project limits are configured by xneelo and are the same for all customers by default. 

    Note: During beta, the limits set on your project cannot be increased. Increasing project limits will be available with the  market release of xneelo Cloud.

    The current project limits are as follows:

    Compute

    Resource Limit Description
    Instances 12 Maximum number of instances that can be created.
    vCPUs 24 Maximum number of vCPUs that can be used (across all instances).
