Upgrading & Managing Storage
Your total storage quota is shared across all projects and deployments within your ArylLabs account. By default, the Free tier provides 1 GiB of total storage, while the Pro tier provides a hefty 50 GB.
How Storage is Calculated
ArylLabs calculates your storage usage based on the total bundled output of your projects sitting on our CDN edge nodes.
- What counts: Built
.htmlfiles, compiled JavaScript and CSS, optimized fonts, uploaded images, and any PDFs or videos included in your deployed folders. - What does NOT count: The original raw files in your GitHub repository, your
node_modulesfolder, or the raw files in your Google Drive (unless they are deployed). We only measure the final built output.
Tracking Usage
You can inspect exactly how much space each project consumes by visiting your Dashboard. The global storage meter provides a breakdown of your allocation in real-time.
Purchasing Extra Storage
If your application scales to the point where 50 GB (Pro tier) is no longer sufficient, you do not need to leap to a custom Enterprise contract. You can directly purchase Storage Add-ons.
- Go to Dashboard → Settings → Billing.
- Under "Add-ons", select Additional Storage.
- Storage is sold in 100 GB blocks for $5/month.
- As soon as you confirm, the new storage limit takes effect immediately with zero downtime.
Strategies for Freeing Up Storage
Approaching your storage limit? Here are best practices to drastically lower your consumed space without upgrading your plan:
1. Delete Unused Deployments
By default, ArylLabs retains history so you can instantly rollback to a previous version. However, old deployments consume storage. You can manually delete historical deployments from your project's history tab.
2. Offload Large Media Files
ArylLabs is optimized for lightning-fast delivery of static web assets. If your project contains gigabytes of raw MP4 videos or high-resolution uncompressed images, consider shifting them to specialized blob storage providers (e.g., AWS S3 or Cloudflare R2) and linking them via absolute URLs.
3. Automated Cleanup (Free Tier)
To help Free tier users stay under the 1 GiB limit, ArylLabs automatically cleans up stale deployments older than 30 days. We only guarantee the retention of your single latest active production deployment.
