Figure 1. Upgrade your AuraDB Professional instance to AuraDB Business Critical

This upgrade does not change the original DBID, so your application strings remain valid. It enables the capabilities that would otherwise be available with an AuraDB Business Critical instance.

GDS plugin removal: If your AuraDB Professional instance uses the GDS plugin, it will be removed during the upgrade. The GDS plugin is not supported in AuraDB Business Critical.

Minimum instance size: If you try to upgrade a 1GB Professional instance, you will need to resize it to at least 2GB of storage, because this is the minimum supported size in AuraDB Business Critical.
