FQL v4 will be decommissioned on June 30, 2025. Ensure that you complete your migration from FQL v4 to FQL v10 by that date.

Fauna accounts created after August 21, 2024 must use FQL v10. These accounts will not be able to run FQL v4 queries or access the v4 Dashboard.

For more details, see the v4 EOL announcement and migration guide. Contact support@fauna.com with any questions.

Query read ops per second, write ops per second, and compute ops per second throughput service limits are enforced by the Fauna API and are restricted based on your current plan definition.

Exceeding plan throughput limits results in a 429 response code. Pro and higher plans receive a warning before seeing the 429 response.

Exceeding the plan limits does not cause your account to be paused. Database usage beyond the limits is billed at the on-demand metering rate.

Plan downgrades

If you want to downgrade your current to a lower plan or to the Free plan, you must contact support@fauna.com.

  • There are no self-service downgrades.

  • The downgrade to the new plan occurs on the first business day of the following month. Your current plan remains in effect until then.

  • There is no "stop all charges now" option.

  • During the downgrade, a final invoice for the current plan is generated that covers the usage in the current month, including on-demand metering incurred since the downgrade request.

  • After the downgrade is complete, the new plan takes effect.
