Note

Currency of Service rates (prices) depends on the company you made a contract with:

  • prices in US dollars are applicable to customers of Yandex Services AG;
  • prices in Russian roubles are applicable to customers of Yandex.Cloud LLC.

Cluster status

Pricing is applied differently depending on the cluster status:

  • For a Running cluster, you are charged both for the computing resources and the size of storage.
  • For a Stopped cluster, you are only charged for the storage size.

Alert

If a cluster uses a local 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 cost of Managed Service for Apache Kafka® usage is based on:

  • Storage type and size (disk space).

  • Computing resources allocated to cluster hosts (including ZooKeeper hosts);

  • Volume of outgoing traffic from Yandex.Cloud to the internet.

In all calculations, 1 GB = 230 bytes.

Use of cluster hosts

The cost is calculated for each hour of operation of the host in accordance with the allocated computing resources. Supported resource configurations are listed in the Host classes section, prices for using vCPU and RAM — in the Prices section.

You can choose the host class for Apache Kafka® broker hosts and ZooKeeper hosts (as appropriate for the expected replication load).

Warning

When you create a cluster with 2 or more Apache Kafka® broker hosts, 3 ZooKeeper hosts with the minimal host class are created automatically in three availability zones to provide replication and fault tolerance for the cluster. If you create a cluster with a single broker host, then no ZooKeeper hosts are created.

The minimum billing unit is one hour (for example, the cost of 1.5 hours of operation is the same as the cost of 2 hours of operation). You aren't charged for time when the broker host or ZooKeeper host isn't performing its main functions.

Disk space usage

The following is charged:

  • Storage allocated for clusters.
    • Storage on fast local disks (local-ssd) can only be ordered for clusters with more than 3 broker hosts in 100 GB increments.

The cost is specified for one month of use. The minimum billing unit is 1 GB per hour (for example, the cost of storing 1 GB for 1.5 hours is equal to the cost of storage for 2 hours).

Example of cluster cost calculation

For example, you created a cluster:

  • with 3 Apache Kafka® broker hosts with the host class s2.micro (2 vCPU, 8 GB RAM),
  • with 3 automatically created ZooKeeper hosts with the class b2.medium (2 vCPU, 50% vCPU, 4 GB RAM),
  • with 100 GB of standard network storage.

Cost per hour for all hosts: 3 × (2 × ₽1.05 + 8 × ₽0.28) + 3 × (2 × ₽0.49 + 4 × ₽0.20) = ₽18.36

The total cost of the cluster in the month (hosts and storage): 720 × ₽18.36 + 100 × ₽2.2881 = ₽13,448.01

Discount for committed volumes of services (CVoS)

You can get a guaranteed discount on Yandex.Cloud resource usage when you plan for one or three years ahead. To see the resources you can get a discount on:

  1. Go to Billing.
  2. Click on the desired billing account.
  3. Choose Commitments in the left-hand menu.

A CVoS guarantees a discount on usage, but doesn't guarantee the availability of the resources ordered. Read more about CVoS in the Billing documentation.

Managed Service for Apache Kafka® provides two kinds of CVoS: on vCPUs and RAM on the hosts you plan to use in clusters. In the management console, you can see potential savings from using a CVoS at the current resource usage. You can also pre-estimate your monthly payments for the desired number of vCPUs and RAM.

Note

You can use a CVoS to order certain types of resources. For non-supported resources, CVoS columns contain dashes under Prices. You currently can't order storage or web traffic this way.

Outgoing traffic

When using the service, you pay for the traffic from Yandex.Cloud to the internet. Traffic between Yandex.Cloud services and incoming internet traffic are free.

The minimum charging unit is 1 MB.

Resource category Cost of 1 GB, with VAT
Outgoing traffic, <10 GB ₽0
Outgoing traffic, >10 GB ₽0.9600

Estimated prices for host classes

Prices for the time of host uptime are calculated based on host classes and the above prices for using vCPU and RAM for the corresponding platform. To accurately calculate the cost of the desired cluster, use the calculator.

Alert

Yandex.Cloud billing details show consumption of vCPU and RAM, which corresponds to the configuration and number of hosts in your clusters.
