A system may define a first computing operation limit specific to a first computing operation category. The first computing operation category may be a computing operation of a first type in connection with a first resource account. The system may further define a pooled computing operation limit applicable to both the first computing operation category and to a second computing operation category. The system may then determine that a defined amount of data associated with a requested computing operation in connection with the first computing operation category exceeds the first computing operation limit. The system may then determine that the defined amount of data associated with the requested computing operation is within the pooled computing operation limit and may subsequently enable the requested computing operation. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A computer system comprising: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computer system to: define a first computing operation limit specific to a first computing operation category, the first computing operation category being a computing operation of a first type in connection with a first resource account; define a pooled computing operation limit applicable to both the first computing operation category and to a second computing operation category; determine that a defined amount of data associated with a requested computing operation in connection with the first computing operation category exceeds the first computing operation limit; determine that the defined amount of data associated with the requested computing operation is within the pooled computing operation limit; and enable the requested computing operation. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The computer system of claim 1, wherein a second computing operation limit specific to the second computing operation category is defined, and wherein the system is further caused to, prior to enabling the requested computing operation: reassign at least a portion of the second computing operation limit to the first computing operation limit. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The computer system of claim 2, wherein the computer system is further caused to: generate an updated first computing operation limit to reflect the defined amount of data associated with the requested computing operation; and generate an updated pooled computing operation limit to reflect the defined amount of data associated with the requested computing operation. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The computer system of claim 3, wherein the computer system is further caused to, prior to determining that a defined amount of data associated with a requested computing operation in connection with the first computing operation category exceeds the first computing operation limit: display, via a client device, a listing of one or more resource accounts, the listing including at least the first resource account; display, via the client device, in connection with each of the one or more resource accounts, an indication of at least one computing operation limit associated with one or more computing operation types, the one or more computing operation types including the computing operation of the first type; and receive, via the client device, a request to initiate the computing operation of the first type with respect to the defined amount of data in connection with the first resource account. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The computer system of claim 4, wherein the computer system is further caused to: display, via the client device, the updated first computing operation limit and the updated pooled operation limit. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The system of claim 2, wherein the pooled computing operation limit is determined, at least in part, by an aggregation of the first computing operation limit and the second computing operation limit. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The system of claim 6, wherein the pooled computing operation limit is further applicable to one or more additional computing operation categories, and is further determined by an additional aggregation of one or more additional computing operation limits associated with the one or more additional computing operation categories. ### Claim 8 (depends on 2) The system of claim 2, wherein reassigning at least the portion of the second computing operation limit to the first computing operation limit includes applying a multiplier to the at least the portion of the second computing operation limit, the multiplier being based on a level of relative risk between the first computing operation category and the second computing operation category. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the second computing operation category is a computing operation of a second type from the first resource account. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the second computing operation category is a computing operation of the first type from a second resource account. ### Claim 11 A computer-implemented method comprising: defining a first computing operation limit specific to a first computing operation category, the first computing operation category being a computing operation of a first type in connection with a first resource account;

displaying, via the client device, in connection with each of the one or more resource accounts, an indication of at least one computing operation limit associated with one or more computing operation types, the one or more computing operation types including the computing operation of the first type;
