Pricing Medium App ( Nextjs Strapi )
@Tyron If you are still around: Do you by any chances have to deal with large media files ? If so have a look at this https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1067670924385583114/1199361212408942734 or directly this https://github.com/strapi/strapi/issues/14417

[WORKAROUND]: Eschew Railway Proxy connection via Cloudflare Tunnel
What I'm wondering: What's the downside of bypassing railway's proxy with a solution like that ? Any technical aspects we should be aware of or for example should we be aware of increased latency (beside the one of course added due to cloudflare handling/inspecting traffic) ? Or is the railway proxy just here to make traffic handling easier for you folks ?
I'm just wondering and try to learn, it's not a real usecase for me. So take your well-owned breaks/time off and get back to this whenever someone has time 🙂

DB Migration replaced DATABASE_URL with DATABASE_PRIVATE_URL
@Brody explained the same thing yesterday to me (in regard of a nodejs backend). See https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1067670924385583114/1194848344724484136 and https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1067670924385583114/1198335583899107368
Or in short: You should continue by connecting via DATABASE_PRIVATE_URL as long as you connect to a db within the same railway-project to avoid high egress fees:
"that in fact might cost you more, since using databases outside of the current project limits you to connecting to it via the public network so you would be subjecting yourself to unnecessary egress fees, if you use a database that's in the same project you can connect to it via the private network and then you would eliminate the database to service egress fees!"

Postgres: 'NO_TS_TUNE' Var
Oh and I can see what the 'NO_TS_TUNE' var is doing. When it isn't present (or set to false) there seems to be a "recycle" task running on the postgres database each 10 minutes:
'2024-01-20 11:56:25.796 UTC [29] LOG: checkpoint complete: wrote 7 buffers (0.0%); 0 WAL file(s) added, 0 removed, 0 recycled; write=0.603 s, sync=0.003 s, total=0.612 s; sync files=5, longest=0.002 s, average=0.001 s; distance=20 kB, estimate=614 kB; lsn=0/1AAF1C8, redo lsn=0/1AAF190'

region is only exclusive for pro plan?
I fully understand that and I can also understand that we don't get this "for free" (what I'm not asking for), my concern is the difference (from a "hobby" perspective):
- I'm not even near the ressource maxs per container/service which come with hobby
- I don't need private networks, horizontal scalling or email-support at all
- The only thing that would be nice would be to select the region (I don't even need multiple regions) where to run my service. Paying 15 Dollars a month for that only (with single to none benefit in my case from the other features that come with pro) is imho a huge price difference.
I would love to have the option to select regions as a (for example) "plugin" and paying an additional X Dollars a month while staying on hobby. But of course you're right, regions aren't yet published and all the reasons outlined here are imho right. Lets see where things will go and perhaps this will be changing at some point 🙂

region is only exclusive for pro plan?
Whats with latency reasons? Don't get me wrong, railways pricing is awesome and more then fair (I even still get the 5 dollar subscription fee waived off each month ❤️ ), but paying 20 dollars a month just to be able to run my app in europe I don't know.. I don't need more ram/vcpu or anything else (and the 20 dollars are imho still more then fair for what you get if you need it) but almost all of my users will be in europe. If I get you right my only option will be to upgrade to pro if I want to run a service in europe-region right?
