Bandwidth Limitation

prasad0889

It would be great if you could bring in Hard/Soft Bandwidth limits for user accounts.

Hi prasad0889 soft limits are already supported on Enhance. Taking down a site when the limit is exceeded isn't yet roadmapped.

It would be great to see 'likes' from others who are interested in this feature.

Aliysa_Enhance Taking down a site when the limit is exceeded isn't yet roadmapped.

IMHO we first need to see the graphing and logging of this exposed (I understand from TICKET01168 this is coming very soon) so we can ensure it is accurate.

I then need a method to monitor people approaching the resource limit (not really just bandwidth, can be storage) and notify them.

I then need a method to notify me if people exceed the resource limit so I can more ideally move them to a larger more expensive package, or charge them an incremental overage cost; or less ideally suspend their access to more of that resource.

So really for me it is about i) having resource use monitored for volume ii) having resource use exposed to customer so they can self regulated before iii) having notification system for approaching or exceeding those resources and iv) having automation for actions when exceeding those resources.

necrom This is perfect. Very well explained.

Need this feature as other control panels have this, sometimes bandwidth can be very much expensive and if overlooked it will cost provider a fortune all of a sudden in next surprise bill from NOC/DC. Please implement hard limit for bandwidth in sooner releases if possible..

this seems like something that urgently needs to be done with the premium bandwidth market.

In my opinion this is a really big oversite with Enhance. It can be managed with a custom script via the API but a panel should support HARD limits with auto suspension and warnings for upselling.

Bandwidth
Excessive sustatined throughput .
Disk space
Excessive disk IOPS
Memory usage
CPU usage

I think all of these should be configurable to send notices to admin, webhook, and/or customer based on defined levels. In this way, each company can customize it as they see fit for their business. I say webhook so that integration is easy via zapier or billing software.

For example

Webhook/Email - 1gb bandwidth overage
Suspend - 10gb bandwidth overage
Webhook/Email - 5% remaining disk space

For sustained type usage maybe a setting like x% usage average over y time. Ie 90% memory used in last 24 hours.

+1, totally agreed..

As @Aliysa_Enhance said if this thread gets enough likes it should be logged, so i think members should recognize the urgency of this feature and like this thread or show support as much possible to push this to development!
