Cloud Instance Scaling is Lovable's Cloud feature: Scale Cloud database/compute from Tiny to Large.
Cloud instances scale across size tiers (Tiny to Large) for performance needs. Real-time monitoring, debugging logs, and alerts when resource limits approach are included.
Cloud Instance Scaling is one surface of Lovable Cloud — the managed backend behind Lovable apps, covering Postgres, storage, authentication, edge functions, and model access inside a single project.
Example workflows
Starting points built from this record, not transcripts of a run. Each prompt is written the way it should be sent, as one paragraph, and each is worth editing before you send it.
Stand it up from scratch
You have read the record and want Cloud Instance Scaling working in a real project rather than a sandbox.
Set up Cloud Instance Scaling in this project — scale Cloud database/compute from Tiny to Large. Walk it end to end, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself before it works.
Expected outcomeA working setup, a plain list of what changed, and a short list of anything left for you to switch on. Check that list before assuming it is done.
Scaling production apps under load
The record lists this as one of the jobs Cloud Instance Scaling is meant for, so it is a fair first test of whether it fits your app.
In this project, use Cloud Instance Scaling for scaling production apps under load. Build the smallest version that a real user could complete end to end, keep the change scoped to that path, and tell me how to test it myself.
Expected outcomeOne complete path a user can walk, the files and settings that changed, and the steps to test it. Walk it yourself before you ship it.
Review it before you publish
Cloud Instance Scaling is wired in and you are about to put it in front of people. This is the pass that catches the half-configured version.
Review how this project uses Cloud Instance Scaling before I publish. Check tiny to Large instance tiers and real-time monitoring and logs, list anything that is missing, misconfigured, or only half wired, fix what is safe to fix, and tell me what you left alone and why.
Expected outcomeA findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.
Cost-tuning small projects
A second job the record lists for Cloud Instance Scaling, useful once the first path works.
Extend this project so Cloud Instance Scaling also covers cost-tuning small projects. Reuse what is already wired rather than adding a parallel setup, and tell me what you reused and what is new.
Expected outcomeA second path built on the same setup, plus a note on what was shared and what was added.
