description: 'Fauna announced End-of-Service in March 2025 and fully shut down its hosted service on May
  30, 2025. The commercial Fauna database is no longer available for new signups, and existing tenants
  were migrated off or sunsetted. Historical pricing was usage-based across four tiers (Free, Pro / Pay-As-You-Go,
  Team, Business + Enterprise) metered on Transactional Read Operations (TROs), Transactional Write Operations
  (TWOs), Transactional Compute Operations (TCOs), storage GB, and outbound transfer GB. Plans below
  reflect the historical pricing pattern; the service is no longer transactable.'
notes: Fauna End-of-Service announced March 2025; service decommissioned May 30, 2025. This artifact preserves
  the historical pricing shape for archival purposes. Consumers should plan migration to alternatives
  (FaunaDB-derived FQL distributions, MongoDB Atlas, DynamoDB, etc.) — see https://fauna.com/blog for
  Meta's migration guidance.
