Free
SQLite at the edge — 5M rows read/day, 100K rows written/day, 5 GB total storage. Resets daily at midnight UTC
- On the Free plan, once the account reaches its daily read or write limit, D1 refuses queries and returns errors until the limits reset at 00:00 UTC; upgrading to Workers Paid removes the limits. (From developers.cloudflare.com/d1/platform/pricing, read 2026-10-20.)
- On the Free plan a single D1 database can hold at most 500 MB, and an account can have at most 10 databases, within the 5 GB account total. (From developers.cloudflare.com/d1/platform/limits, read 2026-10-20.)
- Cloudflare D1's free plan needs no credit card. (From cloudflare.com/developer-platform/products/d1, read 2026-10-22.)
- D1 usage past Free limits requires the Workers Paid plan. That plan has a minimum charge of $5 per month per account. (From developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/pricing, read 2026-10-29.)
- The Workers Paid plan includes 25 billion rows read, 50 million rows written, and 5 GB storage monthly. Rows read overage is $0.001 per million. Rows written overage is $1.00 per million. Storage overage is $0.75 per GB-mo. There are no egress charges. (From developers.cloudflare.com/d1/platform/pricing, read 2026-10-29.)
- Time Travel restores a database from up to 30 days ago on Workers Paid and 7 days on Free. The paid plan has a 10 GB maximum database size and 1 TB storage per account. (From developers.cloudflare.com/d1/platform/limits, read 2026-10-29.)

−3 free_tier_withdrawn Recorded free tier removal on 2026-09-15: CockroachDB stopped offering its free Basic plan (50 million RUs and 10 GiB of storage free per month) to new deployments on 2026-09-15, when it moved new clusters to Cockroach Continuum pricing. New Cloud organizations now get a 30-day free trial with $400 in credit. Clusters created before 2026-09-15 stay on their existing plans during their current term.
