Quotas and limits in Compute Cloud
Compute Cloud has the following limits:
- Quotas
are organizational restrictions that can be changed by technical support. - Limits are technical limitations due to Yandex Cloud architectural features. You cannot change the limits.
If you need more resources, you can increase quotas in one of the following ways:
- Generate a request for a quota increase
. - Contact support
and tell us which quotas you want increased and by how much.
To have your request processed, you must have the quota-manager.requestOperator
role or higher (editor
or admin
).
You can manage quotas using Cloud Quota Manager.

Read and write operations utilize the same disk resource. The more read operations you do, the fewer write operations you can do, and vice versa. For more information, see Read and write operations.
4 For maximum IOPS, we recommend keeping your read and write operations close to the disk block size (4 KB by default).
5 For maximum bandwidth, we recommend 4 MB reads and writes.

Time to complete processes when stopping a VM6 | 30 seconds |
6 When a VM stops, the hypervisor sends a shutdown signal to the VM operating system. The OS has 30 seconds to gracefully terminate all running processes to avoid data loss. After this time elapses, the VM will be forcibly terminated.
