Increasing Limits for Upstash Redis

Upstash is increasing the limits for its Redis service for the second time in two months, significantly raising the maximum throughput from 1,000 to 10,000 transactions per second, the maximum request size from 1MB to 10MB, and the maximum concurrent connections from 1,000 to 10,000 for all plans, including Free, Pay-as-You-Go, and Fixed Plans. This change aims to alleviate issues that users faced during traffic spikes, ensuring that the serverless database can handle variable workloads more effectively without encountering restrictive limits. The previous limits were initially set to manage unexpected costs associated with scalable serverless applications, but the new higher limits are intended to make usage more predictable and help users select suitable plans while still allowing the option to set budgets to control costs. These increased limits will be applied automatically without downtime, and users needing more capacity can contact Upstash for a custom plan.
