Transitioning Your Instances from Hourly to Monthly Billing Cycle

This article explains how to transition your instances from an hourly to a monthly billing cycle in Neon Cloud while ensuring data safety and continuity.

Important Note: Neon Cloud does not support direct conversion of an existing instance from hourly to monthly billing. To avoid data loss, you must first create a snapshot of your current VM.

1

Take a Snapshot of the Existing VM

As described in the Taking a VM Snapshot article, create a snapshot of your instance to preserve its current state.

2

Verify Snapshot Completion

Ensure the snapshot is successfully created and available under the Snapshots section.

3

Deploy a New Instance from Snapshot

Use the created snapshot to launch a new VM.

While deploying the instance, you will find the Snapshot option under the Choose Image section.

4

Select Monthly Billing

While deploying the new instance, choose the monthly billing cycle as per your requirement, review and then deploy the VM.
