A container is the virtual environment where Julius is manipulating your files to execute code, perform analysis, and generate visualizations! Each container acts like a remote computer in the cloud, and like a computer a container has dedicated resources like RAM and CPU.

​
Container Persistence

By default all free and paid user containers are live for up to 1 hour of inactivity. After 1 hour of inactivity, the container is spun down.

​
Types of Containers

There are three types of containers — Standard, which is included in all plans, and Longer Lifespan and Memory Boost which is available in Pro and Teams plans.
