do deployments go to sleep 5 minutes after inactivity even if i'm subscribed?

because a 30 second cold start would be impractical for my api, any thoughts?

It's 10 minutes after no outbound traffic

30 seconds is a lot for a cold start!

you can test it yourself to see the average time

what if i turn off "serverless" how much would my montly usage be on avg?

that depends entirely on what you're hosting and resource usage

you can use the calculator on the pricing page or by checking the estimated costs in the workspace usage tab

the pricing page is a bit confusing, it says $20 per vcpu a month, but also says it depends on the usage percentage

in my case i'm hosting a strapi app for a blog

oh there's no calculator anymore

i see

well what kind of cost would you expect if you were deploying what i'm deploying?

a ballpark figure would suffice

I've never deployed a strapi application before... I've only used Directus and a directus blog with serverless enabled would cost me ~3USD/month

You can also set hard limits if it exceeds your estimated usage and as I said before, after your app is up and running railway will tell you an estimated usage costs
