Managed Service for Apache Kafka® pricing policy
In this section, you can find the Managed Service for Apache Kafka® pricing policy and effective prices for its resources.
To calculate the cost of using the service, use the calculator on the Yandex Cloud website or see the pricing in this section.
Note
Currency of Service rates (prices) depends on the company you made a contract with:
- Prices in US dollars are applicable to customers of Iron Hive doo Beograd (Serbia) or Direct Cursus Technology L.L.C. (Dubai).
- Prices in Russian roubles are applicable to customers of Yandex.Cloud LLC.
Cluster status
Prices are applied differently depending on the cluster status:
- For a
Runningcluster, you pay for both the computing resources and storage size. - For a
Stoppedcluster, you only pay for your storage size.
Alert
If a cluster uses local SSD storage (local-ssd), its computing resources are not released when it's stopped. This means that you are charged in full even for a stopped cluster.
What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for Apache Kafka®
The Managed Service for Apache Kafka® usage cost is based on:
-
Disk type and storage size.
-
Computing resources allocated to cluster hosts (including ZooKeeper hosts) and the type of hosts.
-
Egress traffic from Yandex Cloud.
In all calculations, 1 GB = 230 bytes.
Using cluster hosts
Host operation cost is charged per hour based on what computing resources you allocate for it. You can find the supported resource configurations in the Host classes section. For the vCPU and RAM prices, see Prices.
You can choose the host class for Apache Kafka® broker hosts and ZooKeeper hosts based on the expected replication load. The presence of ZooKeeper hosts depends on the cluster configuration:
- ZooKeeper hosts are added to the cluster if it contains more than one Apache Kafka® host and uses Apache Kafka® 3.5 or lower.
- ZooKeeper hosts are not added to the cluster if it contains a broker host or uses Apache Kafka® 3.6 or higher.
There are different ways to calculate the cost depending on the host type:
-
Standard hosts
Host operation cost is charged per hour based on what computing resources you allocate for it.
-
Dedicated hosts
The usage cost includes two components: the cost of Yandex Compute Cloud computing resources and Managed Service for Apache Kafka® markup for using these resources.
The minimum billing unit is one minute (for example, 1.5 minutes of host operation cost the same as 2 minutes). You are not paying for the time when a broker host or ZooKeeper is unable to perform its main functions.
Disk space usage
You pay for the storage allocated for DB clusters.
- You can only order local SSD storage (
local-ssd) for clusters with three or more broker hosts:- For Intel Cascade Lake: In increments of 100 GB.
- For Intel Ice Lake: In increments of 368 GB.
- You can only order non-replicated SSD storage (
network-ssd-nonreplicated) for clusters with three or more broker hosts in increments of 93 GB.
The price covers one month of use based on 720 hours per month. The minimum billing unit is 1 GB per minute (for example, storing 1 GB for 1.5 minutes costs the same as storing 1 GB for 2 minutes).
Example of cluster cost calculation
The cost of using a cluster with the following parameters for 30 days:
- Apache Kafka® broker hosts: Three
s3-c2-m8hosts: Intel Ice Lake, 2 × 100% vCPU, 8 GB RAM. - Storage for Apache Kafka® broker hosts: 100 GB of network HDD storage per broker host.
- ZooKeeper hosts (created automatically): Three
b3-c1-m4hosts: Intel Ice Lake, 2 × 50% vCPU, 4 GB RAM. - Storage for ZooKeeper hosts: 10 GB of network SSD storage per host.
Standard hosts
Cost calculation for Apache Kafka® broker hosts:
3 × (2 × $0.012080 + 8 × $0.003200) = $0.149280
Total: $0.149280: Cost of operation of Apache Kafka® broker hosts per hour.
Where:
- 3: Number of Apache Kafka® broker hosts.
- 2: Number of vCPUs.
- $0.012080: Cost of using 100% vCPU per hour.
- 8: Amount of RAM per host (in GB).
- $0.003200: Cost of using 1 GB of RAM at 100% vCPU per hour.
Calculating the cost of storage for Apache Kafka® broker hosts:
3 × 100 × $0.025600 = $7.680000
Total: $7.680000, cost of storage for Apache Kafka® broker hosts.
Where:
- 3: Number of Apache Kafka® broker hosts.
- 100: Amount of network HDD storage (in GB).
- $0.025600: Cost of using 1 GB of network HDD storage per month.
Cost calculation for ZooKeeper hosts:
3 × (2 × $0.005600 + 4 × $0.002240) = $0.060480
Total: $0.060480: Cost of operation of ZooKeeper hosts per hour.
Where:
- 3: Number of ZooKeeper hosts.
- 2: Number of vCPUs.
- $0.005600: Cost of using 50% vCPU per hour.
- 4: Amount of RAM per host (in GB).
- $0.002240: Cost of using 1 GB of RAM at 50% vCPU per hour.
Calculating the cost of storage for ZooKeeper hosts:
3 × 10 × $0.104080 = $3.122400
Total: $3.122400, cost of storage for ZooKeeper hosts.
Where:
- 3: Number of ZooKeeper hosts.
- 10: Amount of SSD network storage (in GB).
- $0.104080: Cost of using 1 GB of network SSD storage per month.
Total cost calculation:
720 × ($0.149280 + $0.060480) + $7.680000 + $3.122400 = $161.829600
Total: $161.829600, cost of using the cluster for 30 days.
Where:
- 720: Number of hours in 30 days.
- $0.149280: Cost of operation of Apache Kafka® broker hosts per hour.
- $0.060480: Cost of operation of ZooKeeper hosts per hour.
- $7.680000: Cost of storage for Apache Kafka® broker hosts.
- $3.122400: Cost of storage for ZooKeeper hosts.
Discount for committed volumes of services (CVoS)
You can get a guaranteed discount on service resource usage when you plan for six months or one year ahead. To see the resources you can get a discount on:
- Go to Billing.
- Click on the desired billing account.
- Choose Committed volume in the left-hand menu.
A CVoS guarantees a discount on usage, but does not guarantee the availability of the resources ordered. You can read more about CVoS in the Yandex Cloud Billing documentation.
Managed Service for Apache Kafka® provides two types of CVoS: on vCPUs and on RAM for the hosts you are planning to use in your DB clusters. In the management console, you can see how much you can potentially save with CVoS at the current consumption level. You can also forecast your monthly payments for the required number of vCPUs and RAM.
Note
CVoS discount is only available for certain types of resources. A dash in the relevant CVoS columns under Prices for the Russia region means the resource is not supported. Currently, you cannot order storage or web traffic this way.
Prices for the Russia region
Warning
Prices for Yandex Cloud resources vary from region to region. For more information about the available regions, see Regions.
The currency that can be used to pay for resources depends on which legal entity the user has entered into agreement with. For more information about account registration, see Registering an account in Yandex Cloud.
All prices below do not include VAT.
Host prices are calculated in different ways depending on the selected host type.
The monthly usage rate is based on 720 hours a month.
The price of fast local storage also depends on host type.
