Dynamic scaling infrastructure
On this page
Algolia’s dynamically scaling infrastructure provides a scalable backend for your search and indexing operations.
If you’re on Algolia’s Elevate plan (see Pricing), your infrastructure is hosted on dynamic scaling infrastructure. For services with infrastructure requirements, such as AWS Marketplace, Algolia hosts your application on the designated platform. Otherwise, Algolia selects the optimal infrastructure for your application, and may migrate your application to dynamic scaling infrastructure if necessary.
Scalability
The dynamic scaling infrastructure automatically scales as demand grows, allowing indexing and search backends to scale independently. With the classic infrastructure, you can only scale your infrastructure by sending requests to Algolia’s customer support team. The dynamic scaling infrastructure automates this step, based on traffic.
Access to new features
New features are available only on dynamic scaling infrastructure, such as, NeuralSearch.
Limitations
Not all features from the classic infrastructure are available in the dynamic scaling infrastructure. Examples of unavailable features include (but are not limited to):
