Simple Estimate

A simple rule of thumb: Estimate that you'll need one parallel job for every four to five users in your organization.

Details Estimate

In the following scenarios, you might need multiple parallel jobs:

• If you have multiple teams, and if each of them requires a CI build, you'll likely need a parallel job for each team.
• If your CI build trigger applies to multiple branches, you'll likely need a parallel job for each active branch.
• If you develop multiple applications by using one organization or server, you'll likely need more parallel jobs: one to deploy each application simultaneously.
