Discussing Free Tier for Typesense and Auto-Scaling Implementation
TLDR Hidenori inquired about the free tier for Typesense and auto-scaling. Jason explained the limitations of free instances and auto-scaling's reaction time.

Wed, 27 Sep 2023 05:26:46 UTCThe free tier is across all instances, for a total of 720 hours. So if you provision 1 instance, you'll get 720 hours If you provision 2 instances, you'll get 720 / 2 = 360 hours per instance, etc

Wed, 27 Sep 2023 05:40:11 UTCI see, thank you very much. I understand. So, how quickly does auto-scaling take effect?
Jason
Wed, 27 Sep 2023 06:20:11 UTCAuto scaling requires a consistent breach of recommended thresholds for 12 hours continuously

Wed, 27 Sep 2023 05:16:52 UTCNice to meet you, We are considering implementing “Typesense” into our service. So, we have a question. How many free instances with 0.5 RAM can be launched in conjunction with paid instances? We also plan to offer a free trial for the service we are deploying, and this may change the offerings based on the above information. Best regards.
