Fabric Capacity Allocation

Hey all

I have a general question. When we run multiple artifacts in Fabric like notebooks, pipelines at the same time, will there be any priority wise allocation of the capacity or will it be randomly assigned? Is there any percentage of capacity allotted?
I want to understand how capacity will be allocated.

Thanks

    Hi jashfabric 
    Thanks for using Fabric Community.
    Unfortunately, there's no fixed ratio or priority for CU allocation in Microsoft Fabric when multiple artifacts (notebooks, pipelines, Dataflow Gen2, and Power BI) run concurrently. But you can use the Microsoft Fabric Capacity Metrics App.

    The Microsoft Fabric Capacity Metrics app is designed to provide monitoring capabilities for Microsoft Fabric capacities. Monitoring your capacities is essential for making informed decisions on how to best use your capacity resources. For example, the app can help identify when to scale up your capacity or when to turn on autoscale.

    For more information please refer to this documents:

    Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

  • I have a different issue but regarding Capacity and the Fabric app. I have F64 set for Capacity in the Azure Portal but when I try to create a pipeline, etc I get the following:

     

    I have working on this for 2 days straight. Is there something that I am missing? How does one tie the Capacity to a Workspace?

    Thanks,
