NocoDBHub calculates deterministic RAM, PostgreSQL shared_buffers, and MinIO S3 attachment tiers for teams escaping Airtable per-seat billing and 50k/100k record limits.
Using our sizing formula of 180MB per 100k NocoDB rows plus 25% PostgreSQL overhead, a 25-editor team moving off Airtable Team ($20/seat/mo) or Business ($45/seat/mo) saves $17,604 to $40,104 over 36 months on an $8.99/mo to $10.99/mo KVM node.

In our audit of SQL-backed no-code workspaces, NocoDB delivers the lightest RAM footprint at 180MB per 100k rows because it queries PostgreSQL directly without hydrating every document into memory. We advise pairing a 4 vCPU / 16 GB node at $10.99/mo for teams crossing 500k records.
Baserow separates web requests, Daphne WebSockets, and Celery export workers across Redis queues. We recommend budgeting 220MB per 100k rows plus 980MB base container memory so CSV exports and real-time views remain responsive for 40+ concurrent editors.
Grist runs live Python formulas inside an isolated gVisor or Pyodide sandbox, requiring roughly 340MB per 100k active rows loaded in memory. Our sizing formula flags Grist for high single-core clock nodes when finance teams rely on complex spreadsheet formulas.

NC_S3_BUCKET_NAME: "nocodb-blobs"
NC_REDIS_URL: "redis://redis:6379/0"NocoDBHub applies a deterministic sizing floor: 512MB Node.js engine base plus 180MB per 100k active rows, multiplied by 1.25 to reserve 25% RAM for PostgreSQL shared_buffers and B-tree index cache.
Storing 50GB to 1TB of PDFs and images inside the local VPS Docker volume stalls pg_dump snapshots and fills root NVMe disks. Offloading blobs to S3-compatible buckets keeps VPS disk usage predictable.
Once a workspace exceeds 1M relational rows or runs heavy concurrent webhook automations with n8n, we recommend dedicated vCPU VDS resources (24GB+ RAM) to eliminate noisy-neighbor CPU steal.
Before cutting over from Airtable, NocoDBHub advises running a dry-run CSV and relation schema import on a staging Postgres instance while keeping MinIO S3 attachment storage isolated from your database volume.
