Plan limits

4 min readUpdated October 2026

Every Cloud plan has the limits below. You never choose CPU, memory or a server size: StackBlaze allocates resources automatically and meters what you use. All values are subject to change.

Databases and builds

Databases deploy with one click and grow automatically within your plan. Their connection limits are set for you from the plan, so a small database can't run out of memory from too many connections.

Rate limits

Rate limits apply across all plans. Exceeding a rate limit returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header indicating when you can retry.

Bandwidth billing

Bandwidth is measured as outbound data transfer from your apps to the internet. Inbound traffic and internal traffic between apps in a project are free.

What happens when you hit a limit

When you reach a count limit (projects, apps, databases, environments, team members), creating a new one is blocked and existing ones keep running. Rate limits return 429 with Retry-After. To raise limits, upgrade your plan from Settings → Billing.
