Host classes
Written by
The host class determines the computing power allocated for each host in the cluster. When you change the host class for a cluster, all existing hosts change to match it.
The available storage doesn't depend on the host class. For storage limitations, see Quotas and limits in Managed Service for Apache Kafka®.
Available host classes
Hosts in Managed Service for Apache Kafka® clusters are deployed on Yandex Compute Cloud VMs. You can create these VMs on any of the platforms that Compute Cloud supports. For a detailed description of the platforms, see Platforms.
The full list of possible host configurations on each platform is provided below.
Configuration types:
- s2, s3: Standard configurations, with 4:1 GB RAM to vCPU ratio.
- m2, m3: Configurations with an increased GB RAM to vCPU ratio (8:1). These configurations can be useful for clusters with higher cache requirements.
- b2: Configurations with a guaranteed vCPU share under 100%. This class of hosts is intended for test load, with the minimum recommended host configuration for production solutions being 2 vCPUs with a guaranteed share of 50%.
