Use Recycle Bin

Zilliz Cloud's Recycle Bin feature safeguards your data by keeping a record of all Serverless and Dedicated clusters that have been dropped, whether intentionally or as a result of trial expiration or service suspension. If you have changed your mind or dropped a cluster by mistake, the recycle bin offers a 30-day grace period for cluster restoration.

To use recycle bin, you must be an Organization Owner.

Prerequisites

To restore a cluster in the recycle bin, you need to add a payment method.
