Hello my company is growing fast and it actually crashed today for 2 minutes and it recovered. The thing is I am already set max server size and it still had 20-30% room to grow. What do I do and what are my options? I see the enterprise option 5k/m but it still doesn't solve my problems. I have to move fast and enterprise call is next week. Help please!

Have you tried increasing the amount of replicas?

How does it work? its postgress that is crashing.


Ah, for Postgres, you can try converting it to HA instead.

How do I do that? i think mine is not sure. I was looking at other hosts to host postgress somewhere else. Is that the only solution? I am hitting 26gb and still have room above so idk why its timing out.


You can convert a Postgres instance to HA via Database > Config.

I see that now. Is this reversible? I am checking on this now. Server just crashed gain for brief moment.


Yes, its reversible.

Talking to my ai doesnt seem to solve the core problem for us. and it seems enterprise you can only go to 64gb? is there really no bigger options?


HA allows for fallbacks if a single Pg instance crashes. But yes, if you wish to increase resource limits, you’ll need to upgrade to the Enterprise plan. (https://railway.com/pricing)

Up to 50 replicas, at 48 vCPU / 48 GB RAM per service - this is the max? ineed more greater than this.
