The shared 20gb plan (based on the older, Postgres 8.3-based architecture) is still available, as is the free 5mb shared offering. We won't replace these until this new development plan is out of beta. Once we do we will continue to have a database plan at or near this price point. Stay tuned.

- chanks 14y agoThanks, Matt. Can you share what the dev plan's row limit is? The blog post doesn't say.
- mattsoldo 14y agoWe haven't determined the limit yet. Our goal is that it is more than enough to evaluate the heroku platform and to develop and test on, and high enough that any of the existing shared:5mb databases can migrate to it without worries. It will very likely be on the order of 10^3.
- Stwerner 14y agoLooking forward to hearing the features the "database plan at or near this price point" will have. We would love to be able to connect to our database with other apps besides the main one - even if it ended up somewhere between the $200/month plan and the $15/month - it would be incredibly useful.
- mkramer05 14y agoThis is awesome. Had been really bummed about the lack of direct psql access for the shared database. Thanks Matt and co.!
- Stwerner 14y agoJust a clarification - I was kind of requesting a feature, hoping that the new plans will work that way.
- mattsoldo 14y agoThanks for the feature request. Attaching multiple apps to one DB is something we've wanted to do for quite a while... FYI, you can hack this by provisioning a database on one app, then manually setting the DATABASE_URL config var on a second app to match that of the first app.
- jaxn 14y agoI want that too. In fact, on my todo list is to research the other database providers for Heroku to see if any of them offer this capability.
