Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Note: Codespaces is currently in limited public beta and subject to change. During the beta period, GitHub does not make any guarantees about the availability of Codespaces. For more information about joining the beta, see "About Codespaces."
Codespaces is free to use during the beta. When Codespaces becomes generally available, you will be billed for storage and compute usage.
Compute costs are incurred only when a codespace is active. When you're using a codespace, the codespace is active. After 30 minutes of inactivity, a codespace becomes suspended automatically.
Compute usage is billed per hour, at a rate that depends on your codespace's instance type. During the beta, Codespaces offers a single, Linux instance type. At general availability, we'll support three Linux instance types.
| Instance Type (Linux) | Per-hour rate |
|---|---|
| Basic (2 cores, 4GB RAM, 32 GB SSD) | $0.085 |
| Standard (4 cores, 8 GB RAM, 32 GB SSD) | $0.169 |
| Premium (8 cores, 16 GB RAM, 32 GB SSD) | $0.339 |
Compute pricing may vary for additional instance types and operating systems supported in the future.
Each codespace also incurs monthly storage costs until you delete the codespace. Storage costs for all instance types are $0.10/GB-month.
We'll share more information about any compute and storage usage included in each plan at general availability.
