How long does it live?
Stateful services have a time to live of at least 1 hour, set in whole-hour steps; the default is 1 hour. The maximum depends on the plan: 4 hours on Free, 24 hours on Developer and up to 30 days on Pro. At expiry the service and its data are deleted and cannot be recovered.
What are the limits?
Indexing needs more memory than serving queries alone; see the evidence.
- 96 MB is recommended and 128 MB gives headroom.
A memory floor is not a sizing recommendation.
