+If your inference endpoint uses a model deployed in Elastic’s infrastructure, such as ELSER, E5, or a model uploaded through Eland, you can configure [adaptive allocations](#adaptive-allocations) to reduce resource usage and save costs.

 ## Adaptive allocations [adaptive-allocations]
 
 Adaptive allocations allow inference services to dynamically adjust the number of model allocations based on the current load.
+This feature is only supported for models deployed in Elastic’s infrastructure, such as ELSER, E5, or models uploaded through Eland. It is not available for third-party services like Alibaba Cloud, Cohere, or OpenAI.
 
 When adaptive allocations are enabled:
 
 * The number of allocations scales up automatically when the load increases.
 * Allocations scale down to a minimum of 0 when the load decreases, saving resources.
 
-For more information about adaptive allocations and resources, refer to the trained model autoscaling documentation.
+::::{warning}
+If you don't use adaptive allocations, the deployment will always use a fixed amount of resources, which can lead to unnecessary usage and higher costs.
