## Larger Container instance types

Oct 01, 2025

[Containers](https://developers.cloudflare.com/containers/)

New instance types provide up to 4 vCPU, 12 GiB of memory, and 20 GB of disk per container instance.

| Instance Type | vCPU | Memory | Disk |
| - | - | - | - |
| lite | 1/16 | 256 MiB | 2 GB |
| basic | 1/4 | 1 GiB | 4 GB |
| standard-1 | 1/2 | 4 GiB | 8 GB |
| standard-2 | 1 | 6 GiB | 12 GB |
| standard-3 | 2 | 8 GiB | 16 GB |
| standard-4 | 4 | 12 GiB | 20 GB |

The `dev` and `standard` instance types are preserved for backward compatibility and are aliases for `lite` and `standard-1`, respectively. The `standard-1` instance type now provides up to 8 GB of disk instead of only 4 GB.

See the [getting started guide](https://developers.cloudflare.com/containers/get-started/) to deploy your first Container, and the [limits documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/containers/platform-details/limits/) for more details on the available instance types and limits.
