# Runtime

Navigate to `Settings` -> `Runtime` to configure the runtime settings for your Spice project.

### Runtime Version

The runtime version determines the Spice.ai Open Source version for your Spice project. Each new deployment automatically adopts the latest stable version of the Spice runtime to ensure access to the most recent features and optimizations.

### Runtime Region

The runtime region specifies the geographic location of the data center hosting your Spice project. Region selection optimizes latency, compliance, and performance based on your business needs.

* **Availability**: The region is selected when the project is created. Changing the region of an existing project is available to Enterprise plan customers — contact support to request the change.
* **Supported Regions**:
  * **North America**:
    * **US East (N. Virginia)** - `us-east-1` (AWS)
    * **US West (Oregon)** - `us-west-2` (AWS)

### Compute

Compute settings define the resource allocation for your Spice project, balancing performance and cost.

**Standard Compute Instances**:

* **Developer**: 2 CPU / 4 GB
* **Pro for Teams**: 4 CPU / 8 GB
* **Enterprise**: Dedicated Instances with multiple high-availability replicas

### Storage

Provides a persistent storage for the runtime to save data acceleration files. Data remains intact across restarts and redeployments.

* **Availability**: Storage is exclusive to Enterprise plan customers.
* **Mount Path**: `/data`.
* **Size**: Configured per request. Contact your account executive to set or update capacity.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.spice.ai/docs/portal/apps/runtime.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
