Can someone give me a hand with Azure quotas and Databricks?

[146041]

I'm trying to use databricks learning and go through the various lessons using my Azure pay-as-you-go account. IT's been super frustrating because I'm constantly hitting quota limits. First it was Regional vCPUs, then dedicated, now 'low priority' (which don't even seem to be something I can request).

I never know what these requirements are until I hit them, and most of the time I then have to put in a support ticket with Azure which takes DAYS to complete. These are small requests, like going from 10 to 16 CPUs, basically the equivalent of an iPhone 12 that I'm going to use for all of an hour or two.

It's making working with this nearly impossible.

Can someone give me some basic guidance if they've worked through these challenges in the past?

Hi, it is the same classic problem in all vendors. In every new account in Azure, AWS, or GCC I go through the same story 🙂 Or even worse as I had to wait for 24h sometimes.

Just a little advice. Maybe you still have unused virtual machines running,

• stop clusters,
• in pools set idle instances to 0,
• delete your SQL warehouse, when you stop only they are still running as idle
