Today, we are excited to announce support for Stop/Start in Amazon Neptune Analytics, a new capability that enables organizations to pause and resume their graph workloads on demand,helping reduce costs during idle periods without losing data or configuration.
Many customers use Neptune Analytics for periodic graph workloads such as fraud detection, recommendation engines, or research simulations that run periodically. Until now, customers had to choose between keeping their Neptune Analytics graphs online even when not in use or deleting and recreating them each time they were needed. This approach was not only expensive, but also time-consuming, requiring manual infrastructure management, repeated data imports, and updates to downstream pipelines to accommodate each newly created graph. This adds significant operational overhead and complexity to their analytics workflows. With Stop/Start, customers can now pause a graph workload via the AWS Console, CLI, or API, and resume it later with a single action. While the graph is stopped, they pay only 10% of the normal compute cost, and all data and settings are preserved without needing to delete or rebuild graphs.
This feature is particularly valuable for cost-conscious startups, research teams, and enterprises with analytics workloads. It simplifies lifecycle management and unlocks experimentation at lower price points. Stop/Start for Neptune Analytics is available in all commercial regions where Neptune Analytics is offered. You can start using this feature today via the Neptune Analytics console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs. To learn more, visit the documentation and the pricing page.
