Questions regarding migrating to serverless with more then 100 namespaces?

Hi, seems like we need to migrate legacy starter index to serverless now. My question is that if I have more then 100 namespace, what will happen if I migrate to serverless? If we need to upgrade to standard plan to continue using the namespace, in that case can I also continue using the old pod instead so no code changes are needed? Thanks in advance !

Hi @suzushi-tw thanks for writing in!

If you have more than 100 namespaces in your current starter index, you will still be able to migrate that to a Serverless index. Pinecone automatically ignores the namespace limitation during the import/migration. However, you will not be able to create more namespaces after that.

Keep in mind also that you can now have 5 serverless indexes, each with 100 namespaces in the starter tier.

I hope that helps answer your question, please let us know if you run into any trouble with it.
