Thanks @doque !!
Even though I've been actively looking for this, I couldn't find it.
However, this solution ONLY provides notifications; it doesn't address the underlying problem. I could be sick for five days and not check my phone.
What I need—and, in my experience, what all larger companies require—is a method to halt consumption entirely, similar to Snowflake."
That method you're mentioning is provided by setting up a webhook that pauses a project, which can be fully automated.
Thanks again @doque
For me it seems a little overkill to build an automated system that can handle webhook that can pauses a project
Hmm .. to maybe I'm overthinking it .. could you describe the architecture needed to setup a system like this?
It feels like they are intentionally making it complicated to figure out to avoid people actually setting hard limits. Vercel recently had a customer get charged 20k+ that posted on twitter. When Vercel employees mentioned this way of controlling it through a webhook, most people didn't even know about it. I feel like a hard limitbshould be easy to set in your projects settings and that it should have a default value.
