## Runtime

- **GPU & accelerators**: No — "General Purpose Containers; CPU-Optimized Containers; RAM-Optimized Containers. No GPU option found." [source](https://www.aptible.com/pricing) (confidence: medium)
- **BYOC (Bring your own cloud)**: enterprise-only — "The Self Hosted offering allows companies to host the Aptible platform directly within their own AWS accounts." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/reference/pricing.md) (confidence: high)
- **Secrets management**: Yes — "Configuration variables exposed to containers; do not infer an AWS Secrets Manager integration." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/apps/deploying-apps/configuration.md) (confidence: medium)
- **Storage options**: App persistent EBS gp3 disks $0.20/GB/month: one container, one AZ, no platform snapshots or automatic backups. Managed databases separately provide durable volumes and backups. — "Aptible does not take backups of Persistent Disks." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/apps/persistent-disks.md) (confidence: high)
- **Supported workloads**: web-apps, apis, background-workers, managed-databases, stateful-apps, regulated-saas — "Homepage + solutions pages: apps, databases, AI gateway; solutions for digital health, fintech, founders, engineering teams." [source](https://www.aptible.com/) (confidence: high)
- **Persistence**: Yes — "Attach a persistent disk to an App Service to retain data across deploys, restarts, and container recycles." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/apps/persistent-disks.md) (confidence: high)
- **Data jurisdiction**: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (N. California, Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Mumbai, Sydney, Tokyo, Singapore), South America (São Paulo) — "Stacks docs table lists 14 AWS regions across US, EU, CA, AP, SA." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/architecture/stacks.md) (confidence: high)
- **Resource limits & quotas**: App Service: up to 32 containers in dashboard, 128 through CLI/Terraform. Persistent disks require exactly one container; one disk per service. Trial: 3GB compute, 20GB storage, one endpoint, shared stacks only. — "Scaling above 32 containers for a service (with a maximum of 128 containers) is supported" [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/scaling/app-scaling.md) (confidence: high)
- **SDK languages**: Ruby, Go — "Go API client generated from Aptible's [OpenAPI specs]" [source](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aptible/aptible-api-go/main/README.md) (confidence: high)

- **Isolation**: Container — "Runs containers on AWS EC2; dedicated stacks give per-tenant AWS VPC isolation with dedicated EC2 infrastructure. Not microVMs or bare metal — EC2-backed containers. Isolation at the network/VPC layer, not at the container runtime (no Firecracker/gVisor mentioned)." [source](https://www.aptible.com/docs/core-concepts/architecture/stacks.md) (confidence: high)

Facts come from the product's own public pages. Each claim carries its evidence: a quote and the page it came from. We count capabilities rather than grade products, and "Not assessed" means we have not checked, never that the product lacks it.
