Managing Compute SettingsBeta

Beta
This is coming — this page describes a feature that's still being rolled out and may not be available to you yet.

As an organization admin, use the Compute tab in Organization Settings to choose which instance sizes your organization can use and how many spare instances to keep ready for each size.

About This Task​

A spare instance lets a new service start on that instance size right away, and it uses compute while it waits. Turning a size on lets services use it. If you keep spare instances at 0 for a size, the first service that needs that size starts one from scratch instead of using a spare.

You must be an organization admin to view and change these settings.

Access Compute Settings​

  1. Click your profile icon and choose Settings.
  2. Go to Organization.
  3. Click the Compute tab.

Update Instance Sizes and Spare Instances​

The Compute tab shows a table with the following columns:

  • Size: The instance size. Your organization can configure Small, Medium, Large, and Extra large instance sizes.
  • Enabled: A switch that turns the instance size on or off for your organization. A size that's turned off isn't available to services.
  • Spare instances: The number of instances of that size we keep running and unassigned, so a new service on that size starts without waiting for a new instance to boot. Hover the info icon next to the column header for details.

To update your settings:

  1. For each instance size, use the Enabled switch to turn it on or off.
  2. For each enabled size, set the number in the Spare instances field. Setting it to 0 keeps the size enabled but doesn't keep any instances ready in advance.
  3. Click Save changes to save your settings.

If loading your current settings fails, an error message appears in place of the table. Click Retry to try loading them again. If a later refresh fails after the table has already loaded, the table and any unsaved changes you made stay visible, and the error message appears above the table.
