Start free with Community. Go solo with Starter (CORE module, €10/mo). Scale with Pro at €49/month: metrics, diagnostics & user management for small teams. Need SSO, Test Scenarios, KCM Metadata, Confluent Cloud IAM & quotas, Flink SQL on Confluent Cloud, SLA or air-gapped deployment? Choose Enterprise. All plans run on your own infrastructure: KCM is on-premise software.
Prices are shown excluding tax. VAT may apply depending on your country.
Community is free and limited to 1 Kafka cluster (plus one Connect and one Schema Registry). Ideal for local development, evaluation, and learning.
Paid plans are licensed per module and cluster to match real-world operations. This keeps pricing fair as you scale across environments.
A Kafka cluster is a distinct Kafka deployment you connect to (e.g., dev / staging / prod, or separate regions).
Pro (€49/mo) covers CORE + metrics + diagnostics + multi-user with roles & permissions, for small teams running up to 3 Kafka clusters. Enterprise adds SSO, Test Scenarios (automated produce/consume/assert), KCM Metadata (topic classification & governance), Confluent Cloud IAM & quotas (service accounts, API keys, role bindings, client quotas), Flink SQL on Confluent Cloud (compute pools, statements and a SQL workbench), SLA support and air-gapped deployment for regulated or large-scale workloads. Importing Confluent Cloud clusters, managed connectors, topic sizes, cluster health, the ACL principal picker and Cloud service limits are available in every edition.
