Create artifact container failed: artifact storage quota has been hit. unable to upload any new artifacts

When you encounter the error message “create artifact container failed: artifact storage quota has been hit. unable to upload any new artifacts,” in your application, it means that you have reached the storage limit for storing artifacts. Artifacts refer to any kind of digital content or files (such as images, documents, or media files) that are generated or used by your application.

This error typically occurs when your application’s storage quota has been exceeded, and you are no longer able to upload new artifacts. To resolve this issue, there are several steps you can take:

1. Analyze existing artifacts: Start by identifying and reviewing the existing artifacts stored in your application. Determine if there are any redundant or unnecessary artifacts that can be removed to free up storage space. This can involve deleting obsolete or outdated artifacts, or archiving them to a separate storage solution if required.
2. Compress or optimize artifacts: If the existing artifacts are consuming a significant amount of storage space, consider compressing or optimizing them without compromising their quality or functionality. For example, you can compress images using lossless compression algorithms, or convert large video files to a more efficient format with lower file size.
3. Implement artifact lifecycle management: Define a clear strategy for managing the lifecycle of artifacts in your application. This can involve establishing retention policies to automatically remove old or unused artifacts after a certain period, implementing versioning to track changes and avoid duplications, or implementing a tiered storage architecture where frequently accessed artifacts are stored in a performant storage while less frequently accessed ones are moved to a cheaper, long-term storage solution.
4. Utilize external storage services: If the above steps are not sufficient to free up enough storage space, you might need to consider utilizing external storage services. There are various cloud-based storage providers available that offer scalable and cost-effective storage options specifically designed for hosting and serving artifacts. These services typically provide APIs or SDKs that you can integrate into your application for seamless artifact management.

By following these steps and implementing a proper artifact management strategy, you should be able to overcome the artifact storage quota limitations and continue uploading new artifacts in your application.
