This article presents [index](https://docs.coveo.com/en/204/) [item](https://docs.coveo.com/en/210/) storage, recommendation, and [persistent query](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1011/) [limits](https://docs.coveo.com/en/262/) associated with various Coveo for Sitecore editions.

> 
> 
> For a local development environment, select the [Test organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/2959#test-organization) [organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/) type, rather than a trial [organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/), when creating your Coveo [organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/).

## Storage

The storage allocation for Coveo for Sitecore is limited to a certain number of [items](https://docs.coveo.com/en/210/) per Coveo production [organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/).
An _item_ is an element of content in the Coveo [index](https://docs.coveo.com/en/204/) such as a Sitecore item, a document, an email, an HTML page, or a database record.

Each customer is allocated [items](https://docs.coveo.com/en/210/) based on the [queries per month (QPM)](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1391/) specified in the purchase order and the information in the following table.

## Recommendation

The [Coveo Machine Learning (Coveo ML)](https://docs.coveo.com/en/188/) [Content Recommendations (CR)](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1016/) presents a user with most relevant content consulted by other users with a similar navigation history (see [About Content Recommendations](https://docs.coveo.com/en/3387/)).

Each Coveo for Sitecore Enterprise customer is allocated a limited number of recommendation [queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/231/) (expressed in [recommendations per month (RPM)](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1392/)) per Coveo production organization based on the purchase order and information in the following table.


<div class="table-wrap">

## Persistent queries

You can use [persistent queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1011/) when you want to produce content from relatively static search results and don't want to impact your query allocation per month (see [About persistent queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1630/) and [Render static content using persistent queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1009/)).

Each Coveo for Sitecore customer is allocated a limited number of [persistent queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1011/) (expressed in [persistent queries](https://docs.coveo.com/en/1011/) per month (PQPM)) per Coveo production [organization](https://docs.coveo.com/en/185/) based on the purchase order and information in the following table.


<div class="table-wrap">
<table>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th rowspan="3">Allocation type</th>
      <th colspan="2" style="text-align: center;">Persistent query allocation per Coveo for Sitecore edition</th>
