CapacityLimit

The unit of measure for the capacity limit, which defines how maxCapacity is interpreted. For SAGEMAKER_TRAINING jobs in a quota management enabled service environment, specify the instance type (for example, ml.m5.large). Otherwise, use NUM_INSTANCES.

Type: String

Required: No

The maximum capacity available for the service environment. For a quota management enabled service environment, this value represents the maximum quantity of a particular resource type (specified by capacityUnit) that can be allocated to service jobs. For other service environments, this value represents the maximum quantity of all resources that can be allocated to service jobs.

For example, if maxCapacity=50 and capacityUnit=NUM_INSTANCES, you can run up to 50 instances concurrently. If you run 5 SageMaker Training jobs that each use 10 instances, a subsequent job requiring 10 instances waits in the queue until capacity is available. In a quota management enabled service environment with capacityUnit=ml.m5.large, only ml.m5.large instances count against this limit, and jobs requiring other instance types wait until a matching capacity limit is configured.
