Renewal
Instances with the monthly subscription billing mode will become unavailable upon expiration. To continue using the instance, you must renew it within the specified time frame. Failure to renew promptly will result in automatic release of your TDSQL Boundless instance resources and deletion of data. This document explains the renewal guidelines and procedures for TDSQL Boundless instances.
Note:
Downtime and data deletion risks exist after the instance expires. Renew it promptly to avoid affecting your business.
Prerequisites
Instances to be renewed must be monthly subscription instances. Pay-as-you-go instances are not subject to expiration or renewal.
Renewal Method
You can renew instances either automatically or manually to ensure data integrity. For manual renewal, you need to periodically renew instances to extend their usage time. Automatic renewal saves you the trouble of periodic manual renewal, and helps avoid affecting the use of instances or causing business interruptions due to forgetting to renew them.
Automatic Renewal Instructions
I. Automatic Renewal Rules
Service Content: Automatic renewal of TDSQL Boundless database instances.
Automatic renewal cycle: Determined by the automatic renewal cycle you set. For example, if you select a cycle of 1 month, the system will automatically renew for 1 month upon each expiration.
Deducted amount: The fee for renewing an instance is the same as the fee for purchasing a new instance. For instance fees, see the Purchase Page.
Deduction time and method: The system will start deducting fees on the expiration date of the product. If the deduction fails due to insufficient account balance, the service will be terminated upon expiration.
