docs(cloud): clarify free tier memory size by dragnot · Pull Request #483 · FalkorDB/docs

dragnot · 2026-05-14T13:40:36Z

Summary

The Free Tier docs previously described the limit as "100MB of storage", which is ambiguous since FalkorDB is an in-memory graph database. This PR makes it explicit that the limit is 100MB of RAM (which is also the maximum graph dataset size) and aligns terminology with the Startup/Pro tier pages.

Changes

cloud/free-tier.md: reword intro paragraph to say "100MB of RAM (max graph dataset size: 100MB)".
cloud/free-tier.md: add Memory (RAM) and Max Graph Dataset rows to the pricing comparison table so all tiers can be compared on the same dimensions.
cloud/free-tier.md: update FAQ q1/a1 from "How much storage…" to "How much memory…" and clarify FalkorDB is in-memory.
cloud/index.md: update matching FAQ wording ("100MB storage" → "100MB of RAM (max graph dataset size)").

Testing

N/A — documentation-only change. No code, build, or test impact.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Documentation
- Clarified Free Tier capacity specification as 100MB of RAM instead of 100MB of storage
- Updated pricing comparison table to reflect memory-based allocation
- Expanded FAQ with Free Tier memory information

Free tier docs previously said '100MB of storage', which was ambiguous since FalkorDB is in-memory. Clarify it is 100MB of RAM (also the max graph dataset size), add Memory/Max Graph Dataset rows to the pricing comparison table to match terminology used by Startup/Pro tier pages, and update the matching wording in cloud/index.md FAQ.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Two documentation files clarify Free Tier capacity specifications: the main free-tier.md page redefines capacity as 100MB of RAM (with 100MB max graph dataset size) and updates the pricing table accordingly, while the FAQ sections in both free-tier.md and index.md are revised to reflect the new RAM-based terminology instead of storage.

Changes

Free Tier Capacity Clarification

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Capacity specification and pricing table `cloud/free-tier.md`	Free Tier deployment limit reworded to 100MB of RAM with max graph dataset size: 100MB. Pricing table adds Memory (RAM) column showing 100 MB for Free Tier and updates Max Graph Dataset values (~75% for paid tiers; custom for enterprise).
FAQ documentation updates `cloud/free-tier.md`, `cloud/index.md`	FAQ entries updated to describe Free Tier instance limit as 100MB of RAM (max graph dataset size) instead of 100MB of storage, with expanded explanation of working memory availability.

A bunny hops through docs so bright,
Clarifying RAM in the morning light,
One-hundred megs, not storage small,
Memory's the measure of it all! 🐰✨
