The free-tier, that is the only one available now, allows you to develop all sort of applications already: you can hook up a database through an external provider or through SQLite, you have a few megabytes (128MB) of storage and you can customise your application as you want (using JavaScript and compiled-to-JavaScript languages for now, but more are coming!).
Larger applications require more "benefits", just to name a few: more disk space, a dedicated database, more cpu/ram, a less aggressive cleanup when not used (we put your app to sleep if it has not been used for 5/10 minutes).
Of course additional features are needed. We provide what you see now for free, and we will charge for some of the features that are coming. We expect to cover pretty much any requirement that a developer can have when developing a web application.
This is a big bet, but... well, if it wasn't, it weren't worth to play :)
