What restrictions are included as part of the free package?
All of the rich features in the Diffusion Cloud platform are available in all versions of our software,
including our free version. You can develop, test, and go into production with our free version and
seamlessly move to a paid version only when your business grows. The free version provides up to 10GB data
usage per month, and supports up to 100 concurrent connections and up to 100 topics.
Is the free package forever or is it only for a trial period?
Our free Diffusion Cloud version is yours to use forever, with no time limit or performance restrictions.
You can easily develop, test, and go into production with our free version.
How are peak connections counted?
Peak connections are the highest number of concurrent connections to your Diffusion Cloud service, reached
at any time in a month. Disconnected or closed sessions do not count towards this total.
Are there any limitations around topics in the paid tiers?
No, we do not impose any limitations on topics in our paid versions.
How can I track my usage?
The Diffusion Cloud Management Console dashboard provides a quick overview of current usage. You can also
view a detailed usage metrics breakdown in the Usage dashboard tab, plus estimated billing costs for that
month.
Can I upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time?
Yes, you can do this easily through the Diffusion Cloud Management Console.
Can I install Diffusion on my own servers inside my network?
Yes. The Diffusion platform is purpose-built to flexibly meet any business operations requirements. Unlike
other vendor offerings, Diffusion is available in-the-cloud and on-premise and all versions use exactly the
same SDKs so you move seamlessly between them. You can also set up hybrid configarations as your business
needs dictate. Further, many companies discover that performance on dedicated infrastructure delivers
superior performance to other vendor's multi-tenant cloud offerings.
The Standard plan doesn’t meet my needs - are custom plans available?
Absolutely, yes. We have a flexible billing model and we can always find a model that suits your business
requirements. Simply contact us to speak to a customer account manager.
What payment methods are accepted?
Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover
What happens if my credit card is invalid/expires?
We immediately notify you via email and you have a 7 day grace period to update your billing information.
Why would I want on-prem when looking for cloud?
Many companies are subject to regulatory requirements that dictate where and how their business systems must
operate. We accommodate the specific operational requirements of every individual business by offering
in-the-cloud, on-premise, and in hybrid configuration options so you can make the right choice for your
business.
How can I manage my data in Diffusion Cloud?
The Diffusion Cloud Management Console lets you view and modify your live data model, create dynamic mapping
policies, and apply access control policies.
Can I use 3rd party data-sources like Kafka with Diffusion Cloud?
Absolutely! As a Confluent Gold Partner, Push Technology provides a Kafka adapter to stream real-time data
between systems. This can be used with any of our cloud service versions including our free version. We do
not believe in making you pay to use the full range of Diffusion Cloud's rich feature set.
