Common questions
How is the 80% savings figure calculated?
The 80% savings claim applies to high-volume enterprise Kafka customers spending more than $1 million per year on messaging. KubeMQ uses fixed-cost pricing, with tiers based on package size rather than message volume. Your savings depend on your current costs and the package that fits your needs.
Does fixed-cost licensing mean all costs stay flat?
KubeMQ licensing is fixed within your selected package tier, with no message-volume charges. Moving to a different package tier changes the license price. Infrastructure and operational costs depend on your workload and deployment.
How do I migrate from Kafka?
KubeMQ’s migration tools help you assess compatibility, copy messages, and map consumer offsets. Validate your applications and performance before switching workloads in stages, with a migration plan tailored to your environment.
Explore migrationCan we migrate gradually instead of switching everything at once?
Yes. Begin with a selected workload, validate compatibility and performance, and expand in controlled stages. KubeMQ migration tools help your team move quickly while retaining control of the rollout and cutover timing.
