Scale CPU and memory
You can increase the proportion of CPU and memory dedicated to a service on the resources page, available for all Northflank services.
Increasing the CPU share, or assigning one or multiple CPUs, and memory size can be useful if builds are taking a long time or if your service is handling intensive tasks.
See Northflank pricing plans for CPU and memory resources.
Increase Docker SHM size
You can configure the amount of available memory-backed disk space available to /dev/shm
from the resources page of combined services, deployment services, and jobs. The default SHM size assigned to containers is 64MB.
Using /dev/shm/
can significantly increase performance over using /tmp
for I/O intensive processes.
Writing to /dev/shm
will incur memory usage of the container. With insufficient container resources this may lead to out-of-memory conditions and crash your container.
Next steps
Scale instances
Easily increase or decrease the amount of instances to run depending on demand for your service.
Increase storage
Increase the persistent storage available for your replicas.
Enable autoscaling
Increase availability and reduce cost by automatically responding to changes in usage of your deployments.
