# Create a cluster
Qdrant Cloud offers two types of clusters: **Free** and **Standard**.
## Free Clusters
Free tier clusters are perfect for prototyping and testing. You don't need a credit card to join.
A free tier cluster only includes 1 single node with the following resources:
| Resource | Value |
|------------|-------|
| RAM | 1 GB |
| vCPU | 0.5 |
| Disk space | 4 GB |
| Nodes | 1 |
The capacity should be enough to serve up to 1 M vectors of 768 dimensions. To calculate your needs, refer to our documentation on [Capacity and sizing](/documentation/cloud/capacity-sizing/).
The choice of cloud providers and regions is limited.
It includes:
- Standard Support
- Basic monitoring
- Basic log access
- Basic alerting
- Version upgrades with downtime
- Only manual snapshots and restores via API
- No dedicated resources
If unused, free tier clusters are automatically suspended after 1 week, and deleted after 4 weeks of inactivity if not reactivated.
You can always upgrade to a standard cluster with more resources and features.
## Standard Clusters
On top of the Free cluster features, Standard clusters offer:
- Response time and uptime SLAs
- Dedicated resources
- Backup and disaster recovery
- Multi-node clusters for high availability
- Horizontal and vertical scaling
- Monitoring and log management
- Zero-downtime upgrades for multi-node clusters with replication
You have a broad choice of regions on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.
For payment information see [**Pricing and Payments**](/documentation/cloud/pricing-payments/).

1. Start in the **Clusters** section of the [Cloud Dashboard](https://cloud.qdrant.io/).
1. Select **Clusters** and then click **+ Create**.
1. In the **Create a cluster** screen select **Free** or **Standard**
For more information on a free cluster, follow [Free Tier Setup](/documentation/cloud/qdrant-cloud-setup/). The remaining steps assume you want a standard cluster.
Most of the remaining configuration options are only available for standard clusters.
1. Select a provider. Currently, you can deploy to:
- Amazon Web Services (AWS)
- Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
- Microsoft Azure
- Your own [Hybrid Cloud](/documentation/hybrid-cloud/) Infrastructure
1. Choose your data center region. If you have latency concerns or other topology-related requirements, [**let us know**](mailto:cloud@qdrant.io).
1. Configure RAM for each node (2 GB to 64 GB).
> For more information, see our [**Capacity and Sizing**](/documentation/cloud/capacity-sizing/) guidance. If you need more capacity per node, [**let us know**](mailto:cloud@qdrant.io).
1. Choose the number of vCPUs per node (0.5 core to 16 cores). If you add more
1. Choose your data center region or Hybrid Cloud environment.
1. Configure RAM for each node.

1. Choose the number of vCPUs per node. If you add more
RAM, the menu provides different options for vCPUs.
1. Select the number of nodes you want the cluster to be deployed on.
> Each node is automatically attached with a disk space offering enough space for your data if you decide to put the metadata or even the index on the disk storage.
1. Select the disk space for your deployment. You can choose from 8 GB to 2 TB.
1. Select the number of nodes you want the cluster to be deployed on.
> Each node is automatically attached with a disk space offering enough space for your data for a default setup.
1. Select additional disk space for your deployment.
> This can be required, if you want to store all data on disk and only use RAM for caching.
1. Review your cluster configuration and pricing.
1. When you're ready, select **Create**. It takes some time to provision your cluster.
Once provisioned, you can access your cluster on ports 443 and 6333 (REST)
and 6334 (gRPC).

You should now see the new cluster in the **Clusters** menu.
A custom cluster includes the following resources. The values in the table are maximums.
| Resource | Value (max) |
|------------|-------------|
| RAM | 64 GB |
| vCPU | 16 vCPU |
| Disk space | 2 TB |
| Nodes | 10 |
### Included features (paid)
The features included with this cluster are:
- Dedicated resources
- Backup and disaster recovery
- Horizontal and vertical scaling
- Monitoring and log management
Learn more about these features in the [Qdrant Cloud dashboard](https://cloud.qdrant.io/).
## Next steps
You will need to connect to your new Qdrant Cloud cluster. Follow [**Authentication**](/documentation/cloud/authentication/) to create one or more API keys.
Your new cluster is highly available and responsive to your application requirements and resource load. Read more in [**Cluster Scaling**](/documentation/cloud/cluster-scaling/).
You can also scale your cluster both horizontally andvertically. Read more in [**Cluster Scaling**](/documentation/cloud/cluster-scaling/).
If a new Qdrant version becomes available, you can upgrade your cluster. See [**Cluster Upgrades**](/documentation/cloud/cluster-upgrades/).
For more information on creating backups of a cluster and restore from them, see [**Backups**](/documentation/cloud/backups/).
