You can renew a subscription Data Transmission Service (DTS) instance for up to seven days after it expires. After this grace period, the instance is released and cannot be recovered. To prevent service interruptions, you can manually renew the instance or enable auto-renewal before it expires.
Pay-as-you-go instances are billed in real time based on usage and do not need to be renewed. You must ensure that your account has a sufficient balance.
