Needs ~320 MB RAM · 1 GB recommended(estimated)
Why?
  • Minimum S (512 MB): estimated from the app's language, dependencies and category: about 320 MB. We add 25% headroom on top.
  • Recommended M (1 GB): the minimum is an estimate, so we recommend one size up for headroom.
  • It does background work, so it runs always-on.
Get started
$ git clone https://github.com/directus/directus.git
