For months we’ve been autoscaling your projects behind the scenes, but many Beep Boop users have told us that they want more control. We heard you loud and clear! From now on you can explicitly set how many containers you want to run.

You choose how many containers you want to run.

You’ll be charged per minute, per the number of containers based on your plan. And for improved resiliency, multiple containers are guaranteed to be run on different underlying hosts.

If you are using “Multi-Team Socket Mode” with our Resourcer API that schedules RTM socket connections, we will continue to autoscale those projects, but you will be able to set a maximum and minimum number of containers.

New Resource Utilization Graphs

How do you know how many containers you should run? You can now monitor recent container resource utilization with these new handy graphs on your project page.

New Memory and CPU Graphs
