TL;DR Takeaways:
How can I access Redpanda Cloud?

Redpanda Cloud is accessible through a developer-friendly CLI for efficient workflows, an intuitive web UI for visual interaction and simplicity, and a comprehensive API for automation and seamless integration.

What are the different product lines offered by Redpanda Cloud?

Redpanda Cloud offers three product lines: BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud), Dedicated, and Serverless. BYOC allows you to harness the power of your existing cloud infrastructure combined with Redpanda Cloud's flexible and cost-efficient solutions. Dedicated is for organizations needing high performance and isolation, providing robust reliability and scalability. Serverless allows for effortless scaling and pay-per-use, ideal for startups and teams focused on innovation, not infrastructure.

What growth has Redpanda Cloud seen in recent years?

Over the past two years, Redpanda Cloud has seen a 12x growth in the Total Data Volume processed. Its highest daily ingress saw an 8x growth, and the highest daily egress saw a 5.5x growth from the same period in 2023.

What is Redpanda Cloud?

Redpanda Cloud is a fully-managed streaming data platform that delivers the power of Redpanda without operational overhead. Available across major cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure), it offers dedicated clusters with guaranteed performance, automatic scaling, and built-in disaster recovery. Redpanda Cloud provides sub-millisecond latencies and high throughput while maintaining 100% Kafka API compatibility. Features include automated cluster management, continuous backups, built-in connectors through Redpanda Connect, integrated Schema Registry, and comprehensive monitoring dashboards. It offers flexible deployment options including Dedicated clusters for production workloads with isolated resources and SLAs, BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) for data sovereignty, and Serverless for development and variable workloads. The platform handles all infrastructure management including updates, scaling, and security patches. With consumption-based pricing, teams pay only for what they use. Redpanda Cloud accelerates time-to-market by eliminating infrastructure complexity, allowing teams to focus on building applications rather than managing streaming infrastructure.

What reliability guarantees does Redpanda Cloud offer?

Over the past two years, Redpanda Cloud has increased its SLA uptime guarantees from 99.9% to 99.95%, and now to 99.99%. This ensures your applications are available to run your workflows, no matter what.

What security and compliance measures does Redpanda Cloud have in place?

Redpanda Cloud has achieved SOC 2 and HIPAA compliance (self-attestation), ensuring that your data meets stringent security and privacy requirements. It is suitable for use in healthcare, finance, or other highly regulated industries.
