does your postgres offering scales to zero automatically?

  • basically i need a database that can scale to a specific region but scales to 0 and back up automatically
    how does fly.io scales the database if not?

or is it a provisioned instance that needs to be at least 1?

Hi @kw1

Please see here:

However, you need to ensure that any app connecting to your database also scales to zero, as an open connection can prevent the database from “going to sleep”.

Keep in mind that if you choose the single-instance “Development” config and the hardware experiences network problems or SSD failure, your database may go down, and you could lose data since the last snapshot.
