Compute Plans

Choose a compute plan when creating a VM. Pricing is per month, billed hourly and prorated.

Ephemeral Trial details

The Ephemeral Trial plan is meant for quick testing, not production workloads:

  • Free, but time-limited to 3 days
  • VM is permanently deleted on expiry — there is no recovery
  • Only one active ephemeral VM is allowed per account at a time

Resizing

You can move to a larger plan later from the VM's Settings tab. Resizing requires a restart.

Choosing a plan

  • Launch / Micro — light workloads, small services, dev/test environments
  • Core / Scale — apps with steadier traffic or memory-heavier workloads

If you're unsure, start with Micro — it's inexpensive and easy to resize up later.
