Pausing and Resuming Clusters
You can avoid charges accumulating in your account by pausing clusters when you aren’t using them.
You cannot pause a Viridian Dedicated cluster if it’s hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
Pausing a Cluster
Pausing your cluster can help minimize your costs because you are charged only for running clusters.
-
Sign into the Hazelcast Viridian console and select your cluster.
-
Click Pause and confirm your choice.
If you’re using a Viridian Serverless production cluster, Hazelcast saves your cluster data so that you can resume the cluster at a later time.
What is cluster data?
Cluster data includes the following:
-
Configuration settings
-
Cluster-side modules
-
Jobs
-
Map and JCache data structures
If you’re using a Viridian Serverless development cluster, all cluster data is lost after the cluster is paused.
Resuming a Cluster
-
Sign into the Hazelcast Viridian console and select your cluster.
-
Click Resume.
