This product has charges associated with it for seller support. This is open source software, which is repackaged by Hanwei software technology. The additional cost is applicable to the extended support of 24-hour response time.
Overview
This is a repackaged open source software product wherein additional charges apply for support with Hanwei. Kafka is a distributed messaging system developed by Apache that provides fast, scalable, and reliable message processing for handling large volumes of real-time data. It is capable of handling massive data streams, making it a popular choice for building real-time data pipelines and streaming applications.
Highlights
- Scalability: Kafka is designed to handle large volumes of data efficiently, making it highly scalable.
- Fault-tolerance: Kafka's architecture ensures high fault-tolerance by replicating partitions across multiple servers.
- Real-time and Stream Processing: Kafka is specifically built for real-time data streaming and processing.

Pricing
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time. Alternatively, you can pay upfront for a contract, which typically covers your anticipated usage for the contract duration. Any usage beyond contract will incur additional usage-based costs.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for a preconfigured Kafka 3.7 image running on CentOS Stream 9, with vendor support included. Pricing is not tiered by features. Instead, each dimension maps to a specific AWS EC2 instance type, and your hourly software rate follows the size and family you choose. Smaller instances like t3.nano or m1.small cost less per hour than larger compute, memory, storage, or accelerated instances such as x2iedn.metal or p5.48xlarge. You run the same software across every option. Your total cost scales with the instance you select and the hours you run it.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The hourly rate covers the packaged Kafka 3.7 software running on CentOS Stream 9, plus vendor support. It maps to one running EC2 instance of the size and family you select. You run the same software on every option. Underlying AWS infrastructure charges are billed separately by AWS.
The software rate meters running instance-hours. A stopped or terminated instance does not accrue software charges. Only the hours the instance runs count toward your software cost. Note that AWS may still charge for attached storage on stopped instances, separate from this software fee.
Cost follows the instance type you run. To reduce spend, switch to a smaller family or size, which carries a lower hourly software rate. The change is manual: you launch a different instance from the same listing. The software itself stays identical across all instance choices.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
