Quota Management overview

Quota Management enables you to control how resources are allocated within your Cloudera Machine Learning Workspace on user and on group level.

In order to prevent a single session, job, or other workload from consuming all the available cluster resources, you can limit the number of CPUs, the amount of memory allocated by user, business units, or Data Service by defining resource pools that set resource limits.

Pools are organized in a hierarchical manner, defining nodes in a hierarchy based on resource limits.

A regular workflow of managing quotas constitutes of the following activities:
  1. Creating a resource pool for Cloudera Machine Learning
  2. Enabling Quota management in Cloudera Machine Learning
  3. Provisioning a workplace using a configured resource pool
