Hologres:Enable Serverless Computing

Last Updated:Aug 06, 2025

Starting from V2.1.17, Hologres supports Serverless Computing. To use this feature, you must enable it for your instance. This topic guides you through enabling Serverless Computing.

Enable Serverless Computing

Check whether you've enabled Serverless Computing for your instance in the Hologres console. After turning on this switch, you'll be billed based on consumed serverless resources (unit: CU-hour). For details, see Usage and billing.
