Expanded Resource Limits for Container Workloads

Cloudflare Containers now support dramatically increased resource allocations across memory, vCPU, and disk capacity. This represents a 15x expansion in overall concurrent capacity, enabling developers to run significantly larger and more resource-intensive containerized applications on the Cloudflare edge.

New Limits

The following resource limits have been updated:

• Memory: Increased from 400GB to 6TB per concurrent live instance pool
• vCPU: Increased from 100 to 1,500 per concurrent live instance pool
• Disk: Increased from 2TB to 30TB per concurrent live instance pool

What This Enables

With these expanded limits, developers can now run:

• Up to 15,000 instances of the lite instance type concurrently
• Up to 6,000 instances of basic type
• Over 1,500 instances of standard-1 type
• Over 1,000 instances of standard-2 type

This makes Containers practical for larger-scale workloads that previously required external container orchestration solutions.
