    These are hosting resources provided with a plan. Includes validity period, policy on overusing resources, system resources like disk space and traffic, and service resources like websites, subdomains, mailboxes, databases and so on. For example, the Domains resource sets the number of domains that a customer can register and manage in Plesk.

  • RAM, CPU, Disk I/O

    Includes limits on system resource usage per subscription (available only in Plesk Hosting Pack that can be added to the Web Host or the Web Pro edition.).
