New database or new instance

Question: I’m setting up some new database for a spate set of Agile developers. I need to decide whether I’ll add the new database into an existing instance or create a new instance. What criteria should I use to decide?

1)Do the databases communicate with each other? If not , then I’d place them in separate instances.
If separate instances are used, it’s much easier to ring fence server and instance resources via the Max Server Memory configurable.
