Redpanda pricing and limits
iScoreA C++ Kafka-compatible engine sold as Serverless or bring-your-own-cloud, publishing throughput, partition and SLA ceilings for every tier and no price for any of them.
Who it suits
Knowing the ceilings before you talk to anyone. It publishes throughput, partitions and SLA for both tiers — 100 MB/s and 5,000 partitions on Serverless, 2 GB/s and 112,500 on Bring Your Own Cloud — which is more capability detail than the others put on a pricing page at all.
Consider something else if…
You need to know what it costs. The pricing page carries no currency figure anywhere: not a rate, not a plan fee, not a starting-from. Every comparison here is on capability alone. RBAC, OIDC and audit logging are also BYOC-only, and BYOC is annual commitment.

When these numbers change, hear about it. Sources are re-checked monthly; a repricing goes out as a short note.
