1. I don’t see a reason why not, does GIS data require a different storage protocol? All GIS data I store for work is in the format CODE, GEOTYPE, DATA
2. Railway volumes are limited to 5GB on hobby and 50+GB on pro. Storing images should be done on a different machine than the postgres db, so you would have 2x5GB volumes to work with.
1. It needs some sonfig to be done if I dig through
2. 5GB for DB & 5GB for my Images am I right?
1. do you just mean you need postgis? if so - https://railway.app/template/postgis
2. please see - https://docs.railway.app/reference/pricing/plans#plan-resources
Can I do it in free tire as well?
& Do I have a regular back up of data in the system & DB ??
If you're referring to the trial plan you would only get 0.5GB, if thats enough for you then sure but remember your credits will run out soon
you can use this template to configure backups to S3 for example
https://railway.app/template/I4zGrH
are they valid for t least 3 months?
Got It
the trial plan gives you a one-time credit of $5 so as long as you've that 5$ you'll be able to do whatever you want
and also the resources limitation
got it the 5$ is not having validity riight?
what is emparical storage
yep
temporary storage that you can use to store temporary data
its useful in case you need to do some image manipulation and need a physical storage to store some temporary data
@ThallesComH - can you help me how to use a template like this one
Eg - https://railway.app/template/postgis
sure
Like I want to store the Profile pictures and other picture how to do that can I use the Emphatical storage ??
any doc or video regarding it?
are you sure its the right storage type? is it temporary data that you can lose (it'll be lost forever)
I guess not but its pretty easy, just click on deploy and connect your client
Got it I can use a S3 bucket for that
ok I will test it out
yep, S3 or R2 would be a lot better
Got ittttttt!
