+title: "Education plan: project limit reduced to 2"
+date: 2026-04-07
+---
+
+Due to a substantial increase in abuse, malicious activity, and breaches of our fair use guidelines, including running commercial projects, we are reducing the [Education plan](/education)'s project limit from 10 to 2.
+
+We understand this is not ideal. However, the recurring abuse of Education program resources had grown to a point where it was not feasible for our team to manually address each violation and we took this decision to protect the reliability and trust between Appwrite Cloud and the larger developer community.
+
+Each Education plan project still remains Pro-equivalent, with unlimited databases, buckets, functions, and sites, plus 2TB bandwidth, 150GB storage, and 200K monthly active users per project. The only exclusion is email support. Here's a simple comparison of a project on the Free plan versus the Education plan:
+
+| Feature | Free plan | Education plan |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Databases per project | 1 | Unlimited |
+| Buckets per project | 1 | Unlimited |
+| Functions per project | 2 | Unlimited |
+| Sites per project | Unlimited | Unlimited |
+| Bandwidth | 5GB / month | 2TB / month |
+| Storage | 2GB | 150GB |
+| Monthly active users | 75,000 | 200,000 |
+| Project pausing | After 1 week of inactivity | Never |
+
+For existing Education plan members with more than 2 projects, all current projects will remain active. However, they will not be able to create additional projects.
+
+We will continue looking for other ways to create value for Education plan members, through better learning content, hackathons, and more.

+title: "Separate build and runtime compute specs for Sites and Functions"
+date: 2026-04-08
+cover: /images/changelog/2026-04-08.png
+---
+
+You can now choose **independent compute specifications** for the **build** and **runtime** phases of [Sites](/docs/products/sites) and [Functions](/docs/products/functions). Each spec sets CPU and memory for that phase, so you can tune both performance and spend: right-size compute for heavy builds or busy runtimes without paying for peak capacity in the phase that does not need it.
+
+# Sites
+
+- **Build specification:** CPU and memory used while installing dependencies and producing your deployment artifact.
+- **Runtime specification:** CPU and memory used when your site handles traffic, including server-side rendering (SSR).
+
+# Functions
+
+- **Build specification:** CPU and memory used while building and packaging your function deployment.
+- **Runtime specification:** CPU and memory available to each function execution.
+
+Build steps (dependency installs, compilers, bundlers) often need different resources than steady execution or request handling. For example, a large frontend build may benefit from more RAM during CI-style build, while a lightweight API or static output might need fewer resources at runtime, or the opposite if runtime work is heavy. Setting build and runtime specs separately lets you align capacity with each phase instead of over-provisioning for both, which helps control cost as well as latency and reliability.
+
+Configure these under each resource’s **Settings > Resource limits** in the [Appwrite Console](https://cloud.appwrite.io). On Appwrite Cloud, customizing specs beyond the default is **available on the Pro plan**; Starter organizations see an upgrade prompt when adjusting CPU and RAM.

-Appwrite's paid plans give you the ability to change your function's allocated CPU Cores and Memory, enabling functions and builds to perform more computionally demanding actions quicker.
+On Appwrite Cloud, paid plans let you choose how much **CPU** and **memory** apply to **build** work and to **runtime** work. [Functions](/docs/products/functions) and [Sites](/docs/products/sites) each expose two settings: a **build specification** (install, compile, bundle, package) and a **runtime specification** (executions for functions; serving traffic and SSR for sites). You can pick different tiers for each phase so heavy builds do not force you to oversize steady execution, and vice versa.
 
-These options enable greater performance and flexibility, allowing developers to optimize their functions based on specific requirements. For instance, resource-intensive tasks such as real-time data processing or complex computational operations can now be executed more efficiently. Additionally, enhanced memory configurations support larger datasets and more demanding applications, broadening the scope of what can be achieved with Appwrite Functions.
+These options help you tune performance and cost: for example, a large install or compiler step can use a higher build spec while a smaller spec covers routine invocations or traffic.

 # GB-Hours {% #gb-hours %}
 
-GB-hours is a metric used to quantify the consumption of compute resources by combining both memory usage and the duration of that usage. Specifically, it represents the number of gigabytes (GB) of memory utilized multiplied by the number of hours those resources are active. This metric provides a comprehensive view of resource usage over time, allowing for accurate tracking, optimization, and billing based on actual compute needs.
+GB-hours quantify compute use by combining memory (in GB) and duration (in hours). Both **build** activity and **execution** (function runs or site serving, depending on the product) draw from your plan's GB-hour pool according to the specifications in effect for that phase.
+
+How it works:
 
-How It Works:
-- Memory allocation: Determine the amount of memory (in GB) that your application or function requires while running.
-- Duration: Measure the total time (in hours) that the allocated memory is in use.
-- Calculation: Multiply the memory allocated by the duration to obtain the total GB-hours consumed.
+- Memory allocation: The GB value comes from the spec in use for that phase (build or runtime).
+- Duration: Time that phase is active (for example, build duration or execution time).
+- Calculation: Memory (GB) multiplied by hours gives GB-hours for that usage.
 
 **Example:**
 
-Assuming you have a function that requires 4 GB of memory to operate. If this function runs continuously for 2 hours, the compute resource usage would be:
+If a function runs with 4 GB of memory for 2 hours of execution time:
 
 **4GB * 2 hours = 8 GB-hours**
 
-This means the function has consumed 8 GB-hours of compute resources.
+That counts toward your execution GB-hours for the billing period.
 
 ## Pricing {% #pricing %}
 
-- Free plan includes up to 100 GB-hours of execution and build time per month.
+- The Free plan includes up to 100 GB-hours of execution and build time per month.
 
-- Pro and Scale plans include up to 1,000GB of execution and build time per month. Additional usage is available at a rate of $0.09 per GB-hour.
+- The Pro plan includes up to 1,000 GB-hours of execution and build time per month. Additional usage is billed at $0.09 per GB-hour.
 
-Once the monthly GB-hours limit is reached, additional usage will automatically apply add-ons to your Pro or Scale account. It is recommended to set budget alerts and a budget cap to prevent unexpected payments.
