# Pause and Resume a Dedicated Deployment

Pause a Dedicated Deployment to stop billing when idle, then resume it when you need it again.

You can pause a Dedicated Deployment if you are not currently using the Deployment but want to keep the Deployment for later.

You will not be able to make requests to a paused Dedicated Deployment until you start the Dedicated Deployment again.

You will not be billed while a Dedicated Deployment is paused.

You can pause a Dedicated Deployment from:

1. The Deployments page in your Roboflow dashboard, and;
2. The Dedicated Deployments tab of the "Choose an Inference Server" setting in the Workflow editor.

You can resume a Dedicated Deployment at any time.
