  1. Concepts
  2. Host classes

Host classes

  • Available host classes

The host class determines the computing power allocated for each host in the cluster. When you change the host class for a cluster, all existing hosts change to match it.

The available storage doesn't depend on the host class. For storage limitations, see the section Quotas and limits.

Available host classes

Hosts in Managed Service for PostgreSQL clusters are deployed on Yandex Compute Cloud VMs. You can create these VMs on any of the platforms that Compute Cloud supports. For a detailed description of the platforms, see Platforms.

The full list of possible host configurations on each platform is provided below.

Configuration types:

  • s1, s2: Standard configurations, with 1:4 vCPU to GB RAM ratio.

  • m1, m2: Configurations with a decreased vCPU to GB RAM ratio (1:8 vs. 1:4 for standard classes). These configurations can be useful for clusters with increased cache requirements.

  • b1, b2: Configurations with a guaranteed vCPU share under 100%. This class of hosts is intended for test load, with the minimum recommended host configuration for production solutions being 2 vCPUs with a guaranteed share of 50%.

    Note

    Hosts with a guaranteed vCPU share under 100% can't be used in multi-host clusters.
