Starting May 22, 2026, Pay-As-You-Go (PayGo) is no longer a mandatory requirement to enable Self-Service Disaster Recovery (SSDR) in your production environment(s).
How does this affect me?
You can now enable Self-Service Disaster Recovery (SSDR) for your production environment(s) without a PayGo plan.
