Downtime if increasing memory for Google Cloud SQL


I would like to increase memory for my Google Cloud SQL instance but I am unable to find the downtime for the same. On this page https://cloud.google.com/sql/faq I can find downtime for storage (zero downtime) and CPU (few minutes) but nothing for memory.

Can somebody help me understand if there is downtime associated if I want to increase my RAM for the instance.


Solution

  • So I upgraded my RAM and it seems that the downtime is about 2 minutes, roughly the amount to restart my underlying machine.

    I hope this helps somebody
