Free web services now remain active while receiving WebSocket messages

Free web services now spin down after going 15 minutes without receiving either of the following:

  • An incoming HTTP request
  • An incoming WebSocket message from an existing connection

Previously, only incoming HTTP requests delayed spindown. This meant that a service could spin down even while actively receiving WebSocket traffic.

Learn more about free web services in the docs.
