Containers
Learn what a container is, how long containers last, and the different type sof containers available for the different plans.
A container is the virtual environment where Julius is manipulating your files to execute code, perform analysis, and generate visualizations! Each container acts like a remote computer in the cloud, and like a computer a container has dedicated resources like RAM and CPU.
Container Persistence
By default all free and paid user containers are live for up to 1 hour of inactivity. After 1 hour of inactivity, the container is spun down.

There are three types of containers — Standard, which is included in all plans, and Longer Lifespan and Memory Boost which is available in Pro and Teams plans.
| Container Type | Container Persistence | Amount of RAM | Plan Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 1 Hour | 8 GB | Free, Plus, Pro, Team |
| Longer Lifespan | 3 Hours | 8 GB | Pro, Team |
| Memory Boost | 1 Hour | 32 GB | Pro, Team |
