    Important

    The public preview period of the performance insight feature ended on February 29, 2024. If you want to retain the data that is generated for the performance insight feature, you must activate DAS Cost-efficient Edition or DAS Enterprise Edition before the public preview ends. Otherwise, the performance insight feature is disabled and historical data is deleted after the public preview ends.

  • You can upgrade DAS Enterprise Edition V1 or DAS Enterprise Edition V2 to DAS Enterprise Edition V3 for database instances in the regions that support DAS Enterprise Edition V3. Take note of the following items if you upgrade your DAS edition to DAS Enterprise Edition V3:

    • You are not charged storage fees for the data that is stored before the upgrade. If you perform operations such as querying, analyzing, or exporting the data, you are charged based on the billable items of DAS Enterprise Edition V3.

    • New data is billed based on billable items such as data ingestion, hot data storage, and cold data storage.

      Note

      DAS Enterprise Edition V3 uses new billing rules, which subdivide the billable items based on features. This allows flexible billing and reduces costs.
