ApsaraMQ for Kafka:How do I select the instance edition?

Standard Edition

• Traffic specification = Total traffic in the cluster/3 (for optimization)

• Disk size = Average traffic × Message retention period × 3 (replicas)

• Number of partitions: based on actual business requirements

  Note

  We recommend that you change the number of partitions to reduce costs when you migrate data from a self-managed Kafka cluster to the cloud.

Professional Edition

• Traffic specification = Total traffic in the cluster/3 (for optimization)

• Disk size = Average traffic × Message retention period × n (replicas)

  Note

  When you create a topic, the value of n is 1 for cloud storage and 3 for local storage. For information about the differences between cloud storage and local storage, see Comparison between storage engines.
