Flexible subscriptions support any dataset size or throughput. Pricing is based on your [workload requirements](https://redislabs.com/redis-enterprise-cloud/pricing/) (database size and throughput.)

When you create a Flexible subscription, a cost estimate is provided to help you understand the impact of your requirements.

Note that subscriptions are created in the background. While they are provisioning, you aren't allowed to make changes. (The process generally takes 10-15 minutes.)

Use the **Subscriptions list** to check the status of your subscription. You will also receive an email when your subscription is ready to use.

### Shard types

The shard types associated with your subscription depend on your database memory size and throughput requirements.

| Shard type | Capacity (Memory/Throughput) |
|:------------|:----------|
| Micro | 1GB / 1K ops/sec |
| High-throughput | 2.5GB / 25K ops/sec |
| Small | 12.5GB / 12.5K ops/sec |
| Large | 25GB / 25K ops/sec |
| Very large | 50GB / 5.0K ops/sec |

Prices vary according to the cloud provider and region. Minimum prices apply. To learn more, see [Cloud pricing](https://redis.com/redis-enterprise-cloud/pricing/).
