Add-on Plans

Plan slugs follow the format <service>:<plan>. Use them with watasu addons:create:

Terminal window
watasu addons:create postgresql:standard-0 --app my-app

The dashboard always shows the current price and exact resource numbers per plan — this page is the slug reference and the shape of each tier.

Across all services the tiers mean the same thing:

  • Hobby — single-node, non-production. Manual backups at most. For prototypes, review apps, and small staging.
  • Standard — production-grade: replication where the service supports it, scheduled backups by default.
  • Premium — high availability: more replicas, more zones, automatic failover, longer retention.

traces:hobby-0 is free.

Grafana itself is free and provisioned automatically the first time you attach a logs, metrics, or traces add-on. See Observability Overview.

A few rules of thumb:

  • review apps and prototypes → hobby tiers (postgresql:hobby-0, valkey:hobby-0)
  • staging → one tier below production
  • production → match the workload, not the price ladder. Run smaller, watch metrics, scale up if needed.

For the operational implications of plan choice (durability, backups, retention), see each add-on’s individual page.
