description: How to increase the task cap on an Octopus Cloud Instance. | ||

## Increasing the Task Cap | ||
Self-hosted customers can change their instance's task cap via the Octopus Deploy UI. That is because self-hosted customers take on the responsibility of hosting their instance and allocating resources. They pay any additional hosting fees to their cloud providers. | ||
Self-hosted customers have more control over their task cap. As such, every self-hosted instance starts out with a task cap of 5. A higher task cap requires more hosting resources. Self-hosted customers can change their instance's task cap via the Octopus Deploy UI. That is because self-hosted customers take on the responsibility of allocating resources, and paying any additional Azure, AWS, or GCP fees. | ||

## Increasing the Task Cap for Octopus Cloud | ||
Octopus Cloud customers must reach out to [email protected] to increase the task cap. | ||

Octopus Cloud provides the following Task Cap options: | ||
- Community: 5 | ||
- Professional: 5, 10, 20 | ||
- Enterprise: 20, 40, 80, 160 | ||
|
||
**Please note:** If you need a task cap higher than 160 please reach out to [email protected] to discuss your use case. These options are meant to cover the majority of use cases. | ||
Increasing the task cap will incur a corresponding increase in platform fees. Deployments and runbook runs are computationally expensive. More concurrent deployments and runbook runs requires more resources from the Cloud Platform. | ||

Deployments and runbook runs are computationally expensive. More concurrent deployments and runbook runs requires more resources from the Cloud Platform. As such, increasing the task cap increases your platform fee. | ||
We assign resources to the instance based on the task cap. Changing the task cap changes those resources. That requires a small outage as the instance and database are reprovisioned. We will wait until your next maintenance window to perform that reprovisioning. You might not see a change in the task cap until the next day. | ||
|
||
You can increase the task cap on your instance by contacting [email protected]. They will provide you with the latest fees and discuss options. | ||
**Please note:** If you need a task cap higher than 160 please reach out to [email protected] to discuss your use case. These options are meant to cover the majority of use cases. | ||
|
||
**Important:** 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 are the only options we offer. If you want an instance with a task cap above 160, again, reach out to [email protected]. There are no options between those tiers. For example, no Octopus Cloud instance can have a task cap of 15, 34, 45, or 68. | ||
