## Feature Feature **Preview**: Google Cloud VMware Engine capacity allocations are available in preview. A capacity allocation is a global reservation of physical nodes for your Cloud Billing account. Your reserved nodes are organized into placement groups (PGs), which represent the specific physical hardware and location of your reserved capacity. Google Cloud VMware Engine capacity allocations let you do the following: \* Use a capacity allocation during private cloud creation by selecting a PG. \* Use a capacity allocation when adding a cluster. \* Configure a hybrid private cloud across multiple PGs.
