 Serverless is a [compute tier](service-tiers-sql-database-vcore.md#compute) for single databases in Azure SQL Database that automatically scales compute based on workload demand and bills for the amount of compute used per second. The serverless compute tier also automatically pauses databases during inactive periods when only storage is billed and automatically resumes databases when activity returns. The serverless compute tier is available in the [General Purpose](service-tiers-sql-database-vcore.md#general-purpose) service tier and the [Hyperscale](service-tier-hyperscale.md) service tier.

 Monitoring, management, or other solutions performing any of these operations trigger auto-resuming. Auto-resuming is also triggered during the deployment of some service updates that require the database be online.
