ApsaraMQ for RocketMQ:Change the billing method of an instance from pay-as-you-go to subscription

Last Updated:Jun 28, 2024

If your business traffic is stable and large, you can use the subscription billing method for your ApsaraMQ for RocketMQ instance. The subscription billing method can help ensure the availability and stability of resources and prevent unexpectedly high fees and insufficient resources caused by traffic spikes. To help you reduce costs, ApsaraMQ for RocketMQ allows you to change the billing method of an instance from pay-as-you-go to subscription.

Change rules

  • If you change the billing method of an instance, the ID and endpoint of the instance are not affected. During the change, the instance can run and messages can be sent and received as expected.

  • The instance whose billing method you want to change must be in the Running state.

  • You can change the billing method of an instance only from pay-as-you-go to subscription.

  • After you change the billing method of an instance, you are charged computing fees based on the subscription billing method and storage fees, Internet access fees, and elastic TPS fees based on the pay-as-you-go billing method.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ApsaraMQ for RocketMQ console. In the left-side navigation pane, click Instances. In the top navigation bar of the page that appears, select the region where your instance resides.

  2. On the Instances page, find the instance that you want to manage and click Change to Subscription in the Product Type column.

  3. On the buy page, select a purchase duration and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the payment.
