Scaling is not supported for services with disks?

Scaling is not supported for services with disks.

I thought I would be able to utilize just any service I clicked on but realized the message above when I attempted scaling.

Kindly inform me about the difference and which may be better for my choice. As it stands, I can’t fully differentiate the merits and demerits of each.

Hi Onyetech,

https://docs.render.com/service-types is the best place to get started to learn the benefits of various service types.

Let me know if you have any additional questions after reviewing that documentation. If you can provide any details about your case, that would be helpful as well.

Regards,

Matt

Thank you.

I followed the link above but it did not answer my question, it talks about service types instead. I want more insight on scaling and use of disk and the use cases.

Hi Onyetech,

We do have the ability to scale services with disks attached; it’s currently in early access.

One thing to keep in mind, however, is that each instance has its own disk; there is no way to share a desk across multiple instances.

See our docs for more information: https://docs.render.com/disks#scaling-disk-backed-services-early-access
