With the introduction of capacity management capabilities in May 2026 (Tableau 2026.1), cloud administrators have greater visibility and control of how these capacities are allocated across the sites in a tenant. **Notes:** - The capacity information discussed in this topic applies to sites in your Tableau Cloud Manager (TCM) tenant. The tenant is the top-level administrative layer where cloud administrators manage their organisation’s Tableau Cloud deployment. Depending on your Tableau edition, TCM includes up to 3 sites by default. The number of sites increases with different edition types: Up to 10 sites with [Enterprise](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/to_tab_enterprise_features.htm) edition and a maximum of 50 sites with [Cloud+](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/to_tab_cloud_plus_features.htm) or [Tableau+](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-gb/to_tab_plus_features.htm) edition. However, you might not be able to create the maximum number of sites allowed if there is no available capacity. - Licensing capacity is managed at the tenant level and can be allocated to sites by cloud administrators using site role limits. For more information, see [Manage Site Role Limits](https://help.tableau.com/v0.0/online/en-gb/cloud_manager_site_role_limit.htm). ## Capacity summary The following table summarises the capacity allowances for your site by feature. You can find more capacity information by the feature areas listed in the table below. **Important:** Capacity limits specific for sites in TCM are subject to change as we evolve our infrastructure. #### Additional notes - **Edition and licence:** Several capacities are calculated based on your Tableau Cloud edition and Creator licence count, and noted where applicable. - **Advanced Management add-on:** As of 16 September 2024, Advanced Management is no longer available as an independent add-on option. If your site was previously licensed with the Advanced Management add-on, your site or tenant capacity is equivalent to the capacity Tableau+ or Enterprise edition unless noted otherwise.

\*To ensure optimal performance and fair resource distribution across Tableau Cloud, capacities are managed dynamically based on real-time demand. During peak periods or at Tableau’s discretion, requests beyond the allowed limit might be rejected to prioritise system stability. ### Deployments with capacity-based licence model The capacity-based licence model, Capacity-based Viewer Blocks, replaces your edition’s default capacity for the following capacity types: extracts, extract APIs, publish APIs and subscriptions. Under this model, you also get capacity for scheduled Pulse digests and additional visualisations capacity. **Note:** Capacity for visualisations and VizQL Data Service (VDS) APIs are combined into a single pool in the capacity-based licence model.
