SaaS plan

The SaaS plan runs on shared infrastructure and starts at 4 vCPUs. It follows the same limit model as the Developer plan (QPS, active minutes, storage overages) but is billed using a credit-based system and requires a minimum 12-month commitment. Minimum storage is 1 TB; a support package is mandatory.

For plans on dedicated infrastructure (your own ClickHouse® cluster), see Enterprise.
