> **Note:** The Vercel KV and Vercel Postgres products have been sunset. You can now deploy alternative storage solutions for [KV](https://vercel.com/marketplace?search=kv) and [Postgres](https://vercel.com/marketplace?search=postgres) through the [Vercel Marketplace Storage](https://vercel.com/marketplace/category/storage), with automatic account provisioning and unified billing.

[Vercel Postgres](https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-postgres/quickstart), our serverless SQL database, is now available for Hobby and Pro users.

During the beta period, we reduced cold start times to 100-200ms and fixed several bugs around handling connections. Usage prices have also been **lowered from the beta**:

- Total storage: **reduced 60% from $0.30/GB to $0.12/GB**
- Written data: **reduced 4% from $0.10/GB to $0.096/GB**
- Data transfer:** reduced 55% from $0.20/GB to $0.09/GB**

**Billing will begin on October 19th** and Pro users have the following usage included:

- 1 database then $1.00 USD per additional database
- 100 hours of compute time per month then $0.10 USD per additional compute-hour
- 512 MB total storage then $0.12 USD per additional GB
- 512 MB written data per month then $0.096 USD per additional GB
- 512 MB data transfer per month then $0.09 USD per additional GB

If you were a beta participant and want to opt out of using Vercel Postgres, you can backup your database and[ delete it](https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-postgres/usage-and-pricing#managing-charges).
