Hi all,
I’m looking to upgrade a (paid) redis instance, and wondering what the implications will be around downtime, data, and approaches with blueprints. Particularly:
- I presume the data is migrated across - the documentation says that’s not the case when moving from the free tier, but I think it’s worth explicitly stating that between paid tiers, data is kept?
- Are there any estimates on how long an upgrade takes? Given there’s downtime involved, it’s useful to know how long that might be so I can manage expectations of those using my site. (In my case, moving from
starter
tostandard
with around 150MB RAM currently being used.) - I’m specifying the redis plan level in my
render.yaml
file - should I upgrade by adjusting that value in a commit, or through the dashboard? Does the commit approach work at all? But also, what happens if I perform the upgrade through the dashboard, and then push an (unrelated) commit, withrender.yaml
still having the old plan name?
Any wisdom that can be shed on this would be appreciated Thanks!
