Transitioning from a Free Tier Plan
Capella allows only one free tier operational cluster per organization at any time.
When you upgrade to a paid plan, Couchbase deletes your old free tier operational cluster. |
With your paid plan, you can choose to deploy another free tier operational cluster alongside your paid operational clusters.
To back-up and transfer your data from the old free tier operational cluster to a new free tier or paid operational cluster, you must use the cbbackupmgr
tool.
For more information about using the cbbackupmgr
tool, see Backup a Free Tier Capella Operational Cluster.
