Reply To: Amazon VPC, Trusted Advisor and service limits

[Neil-TutorialsDojo]

Hello gp24 and Private33r,

Good day!
Private33r is right. In addition to what Private33r said, the term “resources in an Amazon VPC not going over service limits” might be confusing because AWS resources like EC2 instances, RDS databases, etc., have predefined service limits (also known as quotas). These limits are not specific to the VPC but to the account’s usage of those resources in general.
Generally, resources cannot go beyond their AWS service limits (quotas). Once you reach a limit, AWS won’t allow additional resources to be created unless you request a limit increase ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awssupport/latest/user/service-limits.html ). Trusted Advisor helps alert you when you are close to these limits so you can take action before you hit them.
I hope this helps.
