Jan 2019 Update - IBM Bluemix is no longer a live platform and we transferred all Statica customers to our direct service at https://www.quotaguard.com. Please sign up at that link to receive the same service.

QuotaGuard is also available on the new IBM Cloud at QuotaGuard Static IP's.

The below instructions will be left here for posterity and a remembrance for What Might Have Been for IBM’s Cloud initiatives.


QuotaGuard Static is available on the IBM Bluemix Catalog. Binding the add-on will provide you with access to our HTTP and SOCKS proxies with your connection string automatically populated in the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable.

Getting Started

For examples on how to integrate QuotaGuard Static with your application check out our Quick Start Guides. Before you head off there be aware of the one major Bluemix difference to our standard documentation, working with VCAP_SERVICES.

Working with VCAP_SERVICES

Learn how to extract your QuotaGuard static credentials by following our VCAP_SERVICES guide.

With the credentials you can then follow one of our quick start guides to get up and running.


If you have questions, or if this solution doesn’t work or fit your use case, please reach out to us at Support so we can help figure it out with you.


Working with sensitive data, like HIPAA, Financial, or Personally Identifiable Information (PII)? 
    Then you will want to check out our QuotaGuard Shield solution, it's the same as QuotaGuard Static, but with stronger end to end security for your requests. We can also help migrate current Static customers to Shield for free, just reach out to us at Support to request assistance.
