Trying to set up CDN but says "The number of profiles created exceeds quota"

Hello @alex spruill ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

I understand that when trying to setup your first Azure CDN, it fails with the following error "The number of profiles created exceeds quota".

As per the Azure CDN subscription offers and bandwidth throttling document,

Some Azure CDNs offerings are only available to certain subscription types. Bandwidth throttling might also apply depending on your subscription type.

• Azure CDN from Microsoft is the only CDN offering that is available to trial subscriptions. Bandwidth throttling is applied for this type of subscription.
• For Pay-as-you-go subscriptions, bandwidth for Azure CDN from Microsoft and Edgio gets throttled until the subscription is determined to be in good standing and has a sufficient payment history. The process for determining the subscription status and having throttling removed happens automatically after the first payment has been received. If you have made a payment and throttling hasn't been removed, you can request to do so by contacting support.
• All Azure CDNs are available to Enterprise Agreement subscriptions. Enterprise Agreements subscriptions don't have any bandwidth restrictions.
• The same functionality as Pay-as-you-go applies to these types of agreements: Visual Studio, MSDN, Students, CSP subscriptions.

May I know what type of Azure subscription you have?

Regards,

Gita

Hi Gitarani, thank you for this information. My current subscription says "Azure Subscription", that's all it shows.

@alex spruill , could you please check the account type by following the steps shown in the below doc?

Ok mine is Microsoft Customer Agreement account type.

@alex spruill , thanks for the update.

As per the document,

Microsoft Customer Agreement: A billing account for a Microsoft Customer Agreement is created when your organization works with a Microsoft representative to sign a Microsoft Customer Agreement. Some customers in select regions, who sign up through the Azure website for an account with pay-as-you-go rates or an Azure Free Account may have a billing account for a Microsoft Customer Agreement as well.

So, we need to validate if you have an Azure free account or Pay-as-you-go account.

As I mentioned above,

• Azure CDN from Microsoft is the only CDN offering that is available to trial subscriptions. Bandwidth throttling is applied for this type of subscription.
• For Pay-as-you-go subscriptions, bandwidth for Azure CDN from Microsoft and Edgio gets throttled until the subscription is determined to be in good standing and has a sufficient payment history. The process for determining the subscription status and having throttling removed happens automatically after the first payment has been received. If you have made a payment and throttling hasn't been removed, you can request to do so by contacting support.

Could you try to check the offer type in your subscription?

In your Azure Portal, search for Subscriptions. In the subscription overview, check the offer type.
