Plans
How Cloud Machine plans are sized and priced, and what stays fixed after you deploy.
1 min read Updated
A plan sets a machine's vCPUs, memory, disk and price. Plans run from a free tier (0.25 vCPU / 256 MB) up to 4 vCPU / 8 GB. Current sizes and prices are on the pricing page.
What a plan includes#
- vCPUs, memory and diskAs listed on the pricing page.
- Bandwidth and disk I/O limitsEnforced per machine.
- A monthly spending cap80% of the plan's monthly price. See the monthly cap.
Your plan is fixed when you deploy#
Every machine keeps a copy of its plan from the moment it is created, so later price changes never reach machines that already exist. To change a machine's size, resize it.
The free tier#
The free plan runs only in the a0 region and is pinned to Alpine. See Free tier.
