managing-cluster-capacity
Manages CockroachDB cluster capacity across all tiers. Self-Hosted covers node decommissioning for permanent removal and adding nodes for expansion. Advanced/BYOC covers scaling node count and machine size via Cloud Console, API, or Terraform. Standard covers adjusting provisioned compute (vCPUs). Basic auto-scales — guidance covers spending limits and cost management. Use when scaling capacity up or down, permanently removing nodes, or managing costs.
- Version
- 2.0
- Compatibility
- Self-Hosted requires CLI access and admin role. Advanced/BYOC requires Cloud Console with Cluster Admin role. Standard requires Cloud Console. Basic has no capacity management — spending limits only.
