Several major changes in the new EMQ X Cloud:

Category segmentation: suitable, is the best

In order to meet the needs of customers in different industries and scenarios, the new EMQ X Cloud is based on the enterprise-class MQTT messaging middleware product, which divides the categories. Split the original version into Basic, Professional, and Ultimate.

  • Basic version

    The base product provides a single-node instance of the MQTT messaging service. This version is suitable for the development of lightweight IoT applications with small access volume but certain requirements for performance and stability. Although basic, it still provides features such as message bridging and webhooks for distributing collected data to third-party services or applications.

  • pro

    The Professional product provides enterprise-class MQTT clustering services. With better performance and higher availability, it also provides many enterprise-class features such as data persistence, message distribution, and VPC peer-to-peer connectivity. This version is suitable for the development of critical IoT applications with high performance and stability requirements. In addition, it is also suitable for application scenarios with integration requirements with other public cloud platform SaaS services.

  • Ultimate.

    EMQ X Cloud has launched its flagship version in this update to meet the needs of customers based on Internet of Things platforms. On the basis of EMQ X messaging middleware, the flagship version adds the capabilities necessary for building IoT platform, such as device management, device shadow, cloud edge collaboration, etc., to help customers quickly build innovative IoT platform products. At the same time, the flagship version supports the privatization of deployment based on bare metal servers, completely exclusive physical resources, and is also suitable for the development of Internet of Things applications with high requirements for performance and security.

Lower cost, higher configuration, better service

  • Significant cost savings

    The minimum price of EMQ X Cloud SaaS service has been reduced from 2.12/ hr to 0.68/ hr, a 68% reduction, and an additional 100 GB of free data per month has been added. It not only lowers the threshold of using MQTT service, but also greatly saves the cost of building Internet of Things applications for small and medium-sized enterprises.

  • Significantly upgrade product configuration

    Take the Professional version as an example, the price of the old Clustering 1000-line specification is 2.12/ hour, the maximum support is 100 TPS, and the free flow is 25G. In the new version, the unit price of 2.18/ hour, the cluster can support 5000 devices to connect concurrently, the number of connections is 5 times of the old version, and the throughput is 100 times of the old version. The maximum support is 10000 TPS, and the free traffic is 100G, which is 4 times of the old version.

  • Faster service response and more professional service team

    The new EMQ X Cloud upgrades the work order system and is equipped with a professional team to ensure customer service. Perfect monitoring and operation can detect service abnormalities in time and automatically recover most failures. The Professional and Ultimate editions offer up to 99.99% availability guarantees that your critical applications are stable and reliable.
