Sign in to Your Account · Fly shows the number of CPUs per machines, but does not show the number of machines. That’s weird. How can I know the number of machines in the cluster?
Can I later (after creation of a cluster), set CPU on SharedX1 and remove all machines but one? I need a cheap machine to test my workflow.
Hi! Managed Postgres is different from Legacy Postgres in that you can’t adjust the configuration or number of underlying Machines in the service. Each cluster includes 2 database nodes, as well as 2 PgBouncer pooler nodes. Other compute layers like those that manage backups and restores are largely obfuscated from view.
The entry-level Basic plan comes in at $38.00 /mo (excl. storage costs). There is no way to bring that price down, so if you need something cheaper to test a quick workflow you’ll want to use fly pg create to spin up an unmanaged PG and choose the dev cluster config:
➜ fly pg create
👉 Development - Single node, 1x shared CPU, 256MB RAM, 1GB disk
