Can I stop a service of Azure Cognitive Search after deploying without removing the resource?

For instance, I would like to stop the service temporarily at night time and on weekend days because of saving cost.

If it is possible to stop it like the Virtual Machine by az vm deallocate XXX, it is good for me.

Thank you.

    @西村 悟史 Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A, apologize for any inconvenience caused on this.

    It is clearly called out in the cognitive search FAQ's here, that you can't pause the cognitive search service all the computing resources are allocated when the service is created. It's not possible to release and reclaim those resources on-demand.

    Feel free to reach back to me if you have any further questions on this.
