Adjustable Storage now available for AuraDB GCP PAYG customers

We’re excited to announce that Adjustable Storage is now available for AuraDB Business Critical and AuraDB Professional customers using GCP Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) directly transacted with Neo4j—extending the support previously launched for AuraDB prepaid customers on GCP.

This feature is available for new deployments and resizes running the latest Neo4j version and can be accessed via both the API and Console.

What’s New

With Adjustable Storage, you can now independently scale storage and RAM for your AuraDB instances—enabling you to increase storage capacity without upgrading instance size. This gives you more flexibility while helping you avoid unnecessary compute costs.

Key Benefits

Greater Flexibility – Scale resources based on your actual needs.
Cost Efficiency – Add storage without incurring extra compute costs.
Streamlined Operations – No need for manual support requests or custom workarounds.

What’s Next

We will be following up with support for GCP marketplace later this year, and also extending Adjustable Storage capability to AWS and Azure cloud customers. We will keep you posted on progress!

New invoice structure for Neo4j Aura

As we continue to expand the Aura product offering, the existing invoice structure containing detailed AuraDB and AuraDS instance usage information was no longer scalable and becoming difficult to navigate.
We are introducing a new, simplified invoice structure, that only presents the total charges for each individual Aura product. The detailed usage information continues to be available under Billing > Usage
, where you can filter down to a given period and export the detailed instance usage information to a .csv file. More details about the Usage
 page can be found in our documentation.
In the new structure you will see:
total AuraDB and AuraDS instance usage in GB-hours under "Qty."
total GraphQL usage in MB-hours under "Qty."
total Aura Graph Analytics usage in GB-minutes under "Qty."
total charge for the respective Aura product under "Amount".
Here's an example of how it will look:

Important Final Reminder: Support for creating AuraDB version 4 instances ending May 31, 2025

We let everyone know here on April 29 that, starting May 31, 2025, Neo4j will no longer support the creation of AuraDB version 4 database instances. Existing AuraDB version 4 instances will reach end of support on November 30, 2025. All new instances automatically use the latest Neo4j version.
If you are currently an AuraDB Professional
 or AuraDB Virtual Dedicated Cloud
 customer running version 4, we recommend migrating your AuraDB version 4 instances before November 2025 to benefit from the latest Aura database features, including Parallel Runtime, Block Format, read-only Secondaries, and more.  
To assist you with a smooth upgrade, Neo4j offers a Migration Readiness Report that identifies deprecated Cypher syntax, drivers, or index types and provides built-in test and live migration tools.
If you have any questions, please contact Neo4j Customer Support.
Thank you
