Connection Budgets
How connection budgets are enforced across data diffs in Datafold
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:
