Exciting news! Can you clarify how the limits work please? Why would a limit be required if the customer is happy to pay for the service? Is the “limit” a free amount of storage and egress per month? If so I think it would be helpful to change the wording since its not clear to me.

“During general availability, limits will start at 5GB once a credit card is added, and limits will increase from there. So sign up now to reserve your higher limit for our production launch.”
