What is changing?
We're increasing the limits for Upstash Redis second time in 2 months.
| Limit | Old | New |
|---|---|---|
| Max throughput (tps) | 1k | 10k |
| Max request size | 1MB | 10MB |
| Max concurrent connections | 1k | 10k |
All the plans that have lower limits than the new ones are affected (including free and pay-as-you-go plans).
Why are we increasing the limits?
We see many users experiencing friction when using Upstash Redis due to these limits. A serverless database should scale with minimal issues.
Why did/do we have limits?
Although the ultimate goal is to scale infinitely, we need some resource planning assumptions to provide a good experience for all users. Also, we use these limits to encourage users to find the right plan for their use cases without big overcharges.
Should you do anything?
No, you don't need to do anything. We will apply the new limits to your Redis DB automatically without downtime.
What if you need more?
If you need more, you can always contact us for a custom plan.
