Will the Validity Periods of GaussDB(DWS) Packages Overlap When I Purchase Another Package Before the Current Package Expires?

Yes. Your new package is effective right after you pay for it regardless of current package expiry.

Recommendations:

  • Select Renew on the Renewals page for the current package to extend the original validity period instead.
  • Or wait until your current package expires to purchase a new one. Your billing mode changes to pay-per-use in the interim.
