+#### Error: The deployment would exceed the quota of '800'
 
 Azure has a quota limit of 800 deployments per resource group. Different quotas are applied per resource group, subscription, account, or other scopes. For example, your subscription may be configured to limit the number of cores for a region. If you try to deploy a virtual machine that has more cores than the permitted amount, you receive an error message that states that the quota was exceeded.
 
 To resolve this issue, delete the deployments that are no longer needed by using the Azure portal, CLI, or PowerShell.

 ### How can I estimate the size of a Hive metastore database?
 
-A Hive metastore is used to store the metadata for data sources that is used by the Hive server. Therefore, the size requirements are affected by the number of data sources you may have to use for the Hive and by how complex the data sources are. Therefore, the size cannot be estimated upfront. As outlined in [Hive metastore best practices](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/hdinsight/hdinsight-use-external-metadata-stores#hive-metastore-best-practices), you can start at an S2 tier. This provides 50 DTU and 250 GB of storage. If you encounter a bottleneck, you can scale up the database.

 ### Are there any Ranger plugins for storage?
 
-Currently, no Ranger plugins exist for blob storage, Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) Gen1, or Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2. For ESP clusters, you should use ADLS As a best practice. This is because you can, at least, set fine-grain permissions manually at the file system level by using HDFS tools. Also, ESP clusters will do some of the file system access control by using AAD at the cluster level when you use ADLS.
