Starting Serverless sql cluster on GCP

ashraf1395 — Tue, 07 May 2024 06:07:23 GMT

Hello there,
I am trying to start a serverless databricks SQL cluster in GCP. I am following this databricks doc: https://docs.gcp.databricks.com/en/admin/sql/serverless.html
I have checked that all my requirements are fulfilled for activating the cluster

I am following the steps as mentioned

Go to the feature enablement tab of the account console settings page.
A banner at the top of the page prompts you to accept the additional terms. Once you read the terms, click Accept. If you do not see the banner asking you to accept the terms, this step has been completed already.
Go to the settings page.
Select Compute.
Click Manage next to SQL warehouses.
Turn on Serverless SQL warehouses (On).

I am not able to find any button or thing to turn on the serverless SQL warehouse, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks @Retired_mod, I will look into ephemeral clusters.
Can you share the link for the official databricks on gcp documentation? I didn't find it in the post link you shared.

I had another question. Though not related to this thread.

Do databricks has any plan for startups, like they have normal free trial
