Change a service plan

Adjust the plan of your services at any time to scale your services as needed and optimize costs.

You can also adjust disk storage without changing your plan.

important

• Downgrading to a plan with fewer VMs is supported for Aiven for ClickHouse® only.
• Changing a service plan triggers a node recycle, service rebuilding, and any pending maintenance updates.

Console

1. In your project, click Services and open a service.

2. On the left-side menu, click Service settings.

3. In the Service plan section, click Actions > Change plan.

4. In the Change service plan dialog, choose the new service plan and tier.

   note

   Select a plan that provides at least 125% of the current disk size unless you're downgrading your plan.

5. Click Change.

Terraform

Update the plan attribute in your Aiven service resource.

CLI

To change a service plan in the Aiven CLI, use the avn service update --plan <plan> command.

Your service's state becomes Rebuilding and remains accessible. When the state switches to Running, your new service plan is active.

note

When you perform a service upgrade or downgrade horizontally, include all additional disks the service uses. For example, when switching from Startup-4 to Business-4 or from Business-4 to Startup-4, include all the additional disks available for this service.
