Datafold enforces a shared connection limit per database across all data diffs. This keeps database usage predictable, which matters most when a database has limited connection capacity. When you set a maximum number of connections on a data connection, Datafold respects it collectively across all running diffs that target that connection, whatever their type. No combination of diff runs exceeds the limit, which:
  • Keeps resource usage predictable
  • Protects the database from overload
  • Means you set the limit once instead of per diff

What the budget applies to

Configuration

Set Max connections in Settings → Integrations → Data Connections → your connection. Datafold enforces it across all diff runs that target that database. Questions or unexpected behavior? Contact support@datafold.com.
