Service Class Options for Event Broker Services

You must choose a service class when you create an event broker service in PubSub+ Cloud. Each service class has limits, such as its availability, the number of connections, storage, queues, and more. Depending on your requirements, you may need to choose a larger service class to meet your current needs.

Event broker services are deployed on customer-dedicated software event brokers. This means that your event broker services are completely separated and isolated from other event broker services. 

The tables below show the service classes and their most relevant service-level (or system) limits in PubSub+ Cloud. The limits for an event broker service class correspond to the limits for the underlying software event broker. For example, the limits for the Enterprise 5K service class are the same as the limits for the 10K software event broker. For detailed information about other limits, see the SolacePubSub_<version>_limits_and_alerts spreadsheet under the relevant broker version folder on the Solace Products website. To access these spreadsheets, you must be subscribed to PubSub+ Cloud and have an account. If you have issues accessing the Solace Products website, contact Solace.

Regardless of its service class, all event broker services allow you to create and access only one Message VPN. Unless specified on this page, all other limits correspond to the limits for the underlying software event broker as specified in the Service Class Properties table:

The posted limits in the tables below refer to the latest version supported on PubSub+ Cloud. Event broker services utilize a varying number of internal topic subscriptions, clients, queues, and connections based on the configuration of these features:

• Config-Sync
• Clusters and event mesh (DMR)
• Disaster Recovery (DR) using Replication
• VPN Bridges

These internally created topic subscriptions, clients, queues, and connections draw from the posted limit numbers. For example, on an Enterprise 1K event broker service, if a configured feature consumes nine connections, then your event broker service would have another 991 connections available.

You can use PubSub+ Broker Manager to find the number of clients, topic subscriptions, queues, and connections that are consumed by the configuration of features on an event broker service. For example, to find the number of clients that were created internally for an event broker service, select Clients > Solace Clients from the navigation bar in PubSub+ Broker Manager.
