## When it is useful

Size a Qdrant deployment (RAM, disk, CPU, nodes) before provisioning. Cloud Free is 1 GB RAM / 0.5 vCPU / 4 GB disk / 1 node and will fail production assumptions. Not a Pinecone RU/WU calculator.

## The Catch

Cloud Free 1 GB will fail production assumptions. Not Pinecone RU/WU calculator. Unused free clusters suspended after 1 week, deleted after 4 weeks. Distinct from deployment-options.
