Automatic Storage Space Expansion

To provide the most robust environment possible, the available storage space is monitored at 5 minute intervals. If our monitoring detects that the available storage space falls below a threshold, an expansion of the storage quota is automatically performed.

Thresholds​

For a total storage size below 50 GB, the threshold is 5 GB of free storage.

For a total storage size above 50 GB, the threshold is 10% free space.

Expansion of the storage space​

The expansion of the storage space is done automatically in steps of 25 GB.

Reduction of storage space​

Reduction of the storage space is not possible. If you no longer need the extra storage, and thus want to optimize the costs, you would need to download a current backup from the server and restore it on a new server.

Billing of the storage space expansion​

The additional storage space is charged automatically.
