Account Limits
Materialize Cloud offers five deployment sizes with increasing processing and memory capacities. The XS and S sizes are available for free during a limited trial period, with larger capacity available for enterprise accounts.
The trial period lasts for 30 days or until you max out the available resources (whichever comes first), and is limited to two deployments. Once the trial expires, your account and deployments may be deleted within 14 days, unless you have upgraded to an enterprise account.
Materialize Cloud specifications
For now, Materialize Cloud is only available on AWS within the us-east-1 region. We are working on expanding this availability to additional cloud providers and regions soon.

Cloud vs. self-managed
For the most part, Materialize Cloud offers the same functionality as the self-managed version. The major exceptions to be aware of are:
Sources
Materialize Cloud doesn’t support using local files as sources; you can otherwise use any other combination of source type and format:
| Sources | Materialize Cloud | Materialize |
|---|---|---|
| Kafka | Yes | Yes |
| Kinesis | Yes | Yes |
| S3 | Yes | Yes |
| PubNub | Yes | Yes |
| Local Files | No | Yes |
| Postgres | Yes | Yes |
Session termination
We reserve the right to terminate a session in your Cloud deployment. This may happen after prolonged inactivity or in the event of planned maintenance work on Materialize Cloud, and doesn’t affect catalog items (which are persisted across sessions).
