Our goal is to make the default experience simple so that you get enough compute to build most real-world apps and dashboards. We still give you flexibility in case you want to purchase additional compute for ingest or queries. We will make this clear in our pricing page -- thanks for the feedback.

> - What do I do if I need more QPS? Barring extreme workloads (say 1 million QPS on 1 GB of data) for which we are not a good fit anyway, we auto-scale enough compute to handle the QPS needs of most real-world applications. As I mentioned earlier, if you want to break out of the standard compute allocation, then we do offer ability to purchase additional compute, but from our experience, this is seldom required.

> - What do I do if I need to ingest more data. Yes, you can purchase additional ingest bandwidth if you need a higher steady state ingest capacity. Please note that the bandwidth limit only applies to real-time streaming ingest — for bulk ingest (for example: the first time a collection is created in Rockset sourced from Amazon S3) we try to build the indexes at much higher speeds and will keep working on making that really really fast without any additional fees.

Thank you for the explanation.

It would probably be good if you made all that clear on the pricing page though (along with the extra cost I would actually incur).
