Application Budget Limit gives you the opportunity to set application level budgets for your Streams.&#x20;

When a stream or application hits its limit, the system will automatically pause all running Streams to prevent unexpected expenses.&#x20;

You can set application-level budgets from your application card and stream-level budgets through the Stream Configurations page.
