+  <para>In addition to VMs, volumes, and snapshots, &PRODUCT; allows you limit resource types, such

+  <para>Previously in &PRODUCT;, resource usage limit was imposed based on the resource count, that

+    new set of resource types has been added to the existing pool of resources (VMs, Volumes, and
+    Snapshots) to support the customization model&mdash;need-basis usage, such as large VM or small
+    VM. The new resource types are now broadly classified as CPU, RAM, Primary storage, Secondary
+    storage, and Network Rate. &PRODUCT; now allows the root administrator to impose resource usage
+    limit by the following resource types for Domain, Project and Accounts. </para>
