I'm using a Cloud SQL instance, I create a database but after a while, around 8 hours that database suddenly disappears without warning or any trace, I'm using my billing account with the credits from the free trial, my instance is Enterprise Plus. Does anyone know why this happens?

Hi @DanielVentura,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

It sounds like your Cloud SQL instance might be getting automatically deleted due to a billing issue. If your billing account is suspended (which can happen if there's an issue with your payment method or if your free trial ends), Google Cloud may shut down and delete resources, including your database.

To fix this, check your billing account status in the Google Cloud Console and make sure it's active and up to date. If your account looks fine but the issue persists, it’s best to reach out to Cloud Billing Support to get more details on what's happening.
