Abstract

Provided is a system for managing the resource limit associated with a user, where the resource limit indicates the amount of compute resources the user is allowed to use. As the user requests and obtains additional resources from a pool of resources, the user's resource usage is increased to reflect the additional resources being used by the user. As the resources used by the user are released, to ensure that the pool of resources has sufficient capacity to handle additional resource requests, the replenishment status of the pool is further checked, and if the replenishment status satisfies a condition for updating the user's resource usage, the user's resource usage is decreased to reflect the resources that are no longer in use by the user. The released resources are torn down and re-provisioned back into the pool of resources.
