storage limits
Maximum allowed data
Storage limits are caps on how much data can be saved in a given space or account.
Digital services impose storage limits on cloud accounts, email inboxes, and databases: I hit my storage limit and had to delete old photos.
Physical storage has limits too—a warehouse can only hold so much inventory.
Exceeding storage limits typically triggers warnings, fees, or the need to upgrade.
