@JeanSebTr's is about controlling the container prevent outbound to public but enable within cloudflare. enableInternet:false should work but they don't have the listenTcp yet. i had the same question because of the blog article had to dive into workerd code to see it wasn't implemented. confirmed the PM building that functionality out

something else to see is that they're releasing https://blog.cloudflare.com/workers-virtual-private-cloud/ maybe soon. its possible that durableobjects will be part of that in which i would think this would fall under the containers

Thanks for the info! It would be great for the container to be able to call its DurableObject. Would simplify coordination if the container can push state when required instead of maintaining websockets or polling for progress

surgery18•6/27/25, 9:40 PM

So I JUST managed to fix it thanks to @Thomas Lefebvre and the issue was the instance type needed to be bigger. So instead of the default dev size, it needed to be the basic type. So @Francisco Hermida try using the basic instance_type. I think it is because the docker image might need to consume more memory then what is available on the dev type. That is my guess. So maybe you should try that too to see if it fixes your issue if it comes back for you.

I don't fully know when a new instance is spawned or how to create or delete one. I just followed the container-template (which doesn't set the instance_type) and was hoping that on new deploys it would somehow update everything for me, which probably is not the case.

would be great if we could define memory/cpu at runtime. i have a few async job flows i deploy via cloudrun, examples are generating videos or zip files, and the amount of memory/disk space is relative to number of input files. atm i use up to 8 vcpu/16gb, so probably awhile before containers is usable as a product

one idea could be to look into using R2 as a local storage sync, but you might lose data if the container stops before a sync finishes

John Spurlock•6/29/25, 7:20 PM

Hmm, when deleting a worker in the dashboard with an associated DO, which is then associated with a container application: I was surprised the container application was not deleted when the worker (and DO namespace) were deleted. This leaves an orphan app associated with a DO namespace id that no longer exists.

I have a doubt about cloudflare containers. I have a video processing work load which downlaod the video from r2 and do some processing and send the results to database. Is there any time restrictions for container run time? because it probably take more time depend upon the video size. I think container should call from worker and worker have a time execution limit.
