Frequently asked questions
Redpanda validates a range of client libraries from the Kafka ecosystem, including libraries for Node.js, Python, Go, and more. Clients that have not been validated by Redpanda Data — but use the Kafka protocol — remain compatible with Redpanda Serverless, subject to certain limitations. Redpanda Serverless also provides in-console quickstart guides featuring franz-go, kafka-python, and KafkaJS.
New signups will get $100 in free credits, which expire in 14 days. To continue using Serverless after the 14-day free trial period, users must enter a valid credit card within 7 days of trial expiration. Accounts remain active in perpetuity, but after this 7-day period, Redpanda will delete any data in an account that has not successfully registered a credit card.
Serverless features usage-based pricing, billing users at the end of the month. We bill on the following dimensions:

We built a new cloud-native serverless tier to deliver proper workload isolation while handling massive Kafka workloads (5, 10, 20GB/s). By virtualizing the entire TCP connection and session management, we’ve designed an architecture that supports the most successful Kafka API implementation outside of Apache Kafka itself. See the architecture summary below.
For Serverless, we currently offer a 99.9% uptime SLA.
Yes, it truly scales to zero. If you do not use Serverless, we do not charge you, period. In fact the initial bytes in the read-only “hello-world” topic don't even go against your free trial funds!
We call this Read Replicas and have had this capability for over 2 years. The ability to read directly from S3 without incurring intercluster transfer costs is available today. See more on our docs.
Today, we provide 200+ data connectors as part of Redpanda Connect for Serverless.
Serverless is currently available on AWS in the us-east-1 (Virginia) and eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) regions. Ask for a region via #serverless in the community Slack team.
