# Seven Architectural Readiness Checks Before Production Launch

**[Auth0](https://daily.dev/sources/auth0)** · 7 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

This guide from Auth0's Customer Advocacy team outlines seven platform limits teams building on Auth0's free tier should check before launching to production: Organizations (capped at five), Enterprise/SSO connections (capped at one on free tier), Custom Domains (requires a credit card on file), password hash migration (Professional plan only), Fine-Grained Authorization (limited free trial with MAU/tuple caps), MFA factor progression (TOTP, WebAuthn, push, SMS, Adaptive MFA tied to plan tiers), and automatic tenant deletion after 150 days of inactivity. It recommends upgrading to Essentials or Professional self-service plans to unlock higher limits and avoid last-minute scrambling before go-live.

## Questions this post answers

### How many enterprise SSO connections does Auth0's free plan include?

Auth0's free plan includes one Enterprise connection, such as SAML, OIDC federation, or directory integrations like Google Workspace or ADFS, plus unlimited Okta Enterprise connections. Standard social logins do not count against this limit. Upgrading to B2B Essentials adds three Enterprise connections, while B2B Professional includes five, with additional connections available as self-service add-ons.

_Teams planning multi-client SSO rollouts can track plan limits like these on daily.dev before they hit a wall._

### When does Auth0 automatically delete an inactive free tier tenant?

Auth0 automatically decommissions free tier tenants that remain inactive for 150 days, removing test datasets and action scripts. Logging in periodically keeps a tenant active and prevents automated deletion. Inviting a secondary tenant administrator under Settings > Tenant Members is recommended so access is never lost if a primary developer's email changes.

_daily.dev helps developers keep tabs on platform lifecycle rules like this before a staging tenant disappears._

### What are the MAU and tuple limits for Auth0 FGA's free trial?

Auth0 Fine-Grained Authorization offers a limited free trial supporting up to 100 monthly active users per store and 50,000 relationship tuples, intended for prototyping and proof-of-concept builds. Applications requiring higher relationship-store capacity need to evaluate their FGA store requirements against paid subscription plans as they scale.

_Engineers evaluating fine-grained authorization options can compare limits like these on daily.dev before scaling._
