postgress size database

Hi Railway team 👋

I am currently using the Pro plan with a 50 GB database volume. If my database grows beyond 50 GB, can I increase the storage limit beyond 250 GB?

Is there a maximum limit (for example 1 TB), and can the volume continue to scale as the database grows?

Thank you!

Hey, Pro plan users can increase the volume up to 1TB.

Thanks for the clarification!

If my database eventually exceeds 5 TB, is it possible to increase the volume beyond that limit? Or is 5 TB the maximum storage available per volume on the Pro plan?

Hey, the pro plan's regular limit is 1TB and not 5TB. The 5TB limit would be for enterprise, which I suppose can be extended since it's enterprise.

I need to increase my database memory. It's currently set to 24 GB, and I'd like to increase it without having to upgrade my plan. I'm currently on the Pro plan.

Hey, are you sure that you need more RAM and not just storage, how does your usage graph look like for your database? The pro plan has a limit of 24GB per replica, which can not be increased without upgrading to enterprise.

On the Enterprise plan, can I scale my database horizontally?

Hey, it's not possible to horizontally scale services that have a volume. The closest thing (which isn't the same as scaling horizontally) would be Postgres High Availability.
