Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor, and additional usage. You pay upfront or in installments according to your contract terms with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. Usage-based pricing is in effect for overages or additional usage not covered in the contract. These charges are applied on top of the contract price. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before the contract end date, access to your entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
This listing uses a single pricing dimension: the Capacity Unit. Each Capacity Unit gives you 5 Virtual Processor Cores (VPC) of IBM MQ as a Service entitlement. You scale by buying more Capacity Units as your processing needs grow. This is a reserved instance contract, meaning you commit to your capacity for the term. Because there is only one dimension, pricing is straightforward: your total cost tracks the number of Capacity Units you reserve. There are no separate tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons to select.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one Capacity Unit map to in concrete terms?
One Capacity Unit gives you 5 Virtual Processor Cores (VPC) of IBM MQ as a Service entitlement. A VPC is a unit of processing capacity assigned to your queue managers. You buy Capacity Units in whole increments, and each covers the same 5 VPCs.
How does my cost change as my messaging workload grows?
Cost scales with the number of Capacity Units you reserve. Each unit adds 5 more Virtual Processor Cores of entitlement. To handle more processing, you add whole Capacity Units. There are no separate instance sizes or usage add-ons that change the bill independently.
Is this a reserved commitment or pay-as-you-go billing?
This is a reserved instance contract. You commit to a set number of Capacity Units for the term rather than metering usage by the hour. This model fits steady, continuous messaging workloads where you know your capacity needs in advance.
