Azure Batch Account quota

Question

I want to increase the quota of creating a batch account in same region. For eg. I have the limit of creating 3 batch accounts in Central US region. However I want to create 2 more batch accounts in same region.

Is there any extra cost associated for increasing the quota?

Answer 1

Based on the Azure Subscription Limits, you can have a maximum of 50 batch accounts. For increasing the quota, you will need to contact Azure Support.

Regarding any extra cost, I don't think so. Based on the pricing page, you are not charged for the account per se. Rather you're charged for the compute and other resources you deploy in these accounts to run your batch jobs.

There is no charge for Batch itself, only the underlying compute and other resources consumed to run your batch jobs. For compute, Cloud Services, Linux Virtual Machines or Windows Virtual Machines can be utilised by Batch.
