Capacity Assessment

After the selected cluster type is confirmed, you need to evaluate the instance specifications required for actual business operations, including computing specifications and storage specifications.
Computing specifications: The computing specifications of TDMQ for Apache Pulsar Pro Edition indicate the maximum TPS for message sending and receiving, and the maximum bandwidth of the cluster instance. You need to select appropriate computing specifications based on actual business operations.
Storage specifications: You can estimate the message volume and size based on the business volume and calculate the required storage space. For pro clusters (fixed storage), the storage capacity is fixed, and yearly/monthly subscription is used. For pro clusters (elastic storage), storage is billed in pay-as-you-go mode. However, clusters of different specifications have different storage upper limits.
TDMQ for Apache Pulsar Pro Edition uses 3 replicas for message storage by default. Note this during the assessment.
