Enable serverless for Azure Cosmos DB

Question

How can we enable serverless for an existing Azure Cosmos DB instance?

Once running in serverless mode is it possible to switch an existing - i.e. in production - Cosmos DB instance back and forth between provisioned throughput and serverless mode?

Thanks!

Hi @Jan B ,

You have to choose between provisioned throughput and serverless when creating a new account. You must create a new serverless account to get started with serverless. Migrating existing accounts to/from serverless mode is not currently supported.
