CKafka transfers data over the private network by default. To access over the public network, you need to activate a public network route separately. For detailed directions, see Adding Routing Policy. Currently, public network bandwidth of 3 Mbps is provided free of charge by default.
CKafka Pro Edition allows you to increase the bandwidth of the public network. You can pay for more public network bandwidth if you require it. For the specific prices, see Billing Overview.
This document describes how to upgrade, adjust, and delete the public network bandwidth in the CKafka console.
Directions
CKafka adjusted the purchase entry and mode of public network bandwidth on January 7, 2022. After then, new users can purchase a public network bandwidth during instance purchase, and existing instances continue to be billed by the hourly bandwidth, which can be upgraded.
You can click the following tags to view the purchase methods and relevant operations for old and new instances.
2. Click Instance List on the left sidebar and click Create to enter the purchase page.
3. On the purchase page, set the instance information and select the public network bandwidth based on your actual needs.
Billing Mode: Monthly bandwidth and hourly bandwidth are supported. Currently, you cannot switch the billing mode of the public network bandwidth. For billing details, see Billing Overview.
Bandwidth Size: Select the desired public network bandwidth size. CKafka provides 3 Mbps public network bandwidth free of charge by default. You can purchase more as needed.
4. Click Buy Now.
Upgrading the public network bandwidth
Note:
Currently, the public network bandwidth cannot be downgraded in the console. Therefore, make your purchase with caution. If you need to downgrade it, submit a ticket for assistance.
2. Click Instance List on the left sidebar and then the ID/Name of your instance to enter the Basic Info page.
3. On the instance's basic information page, click Upgrade next to the public network bandwidth in the Configuration Information module.
4. Modify the public network bandwidth in the pop-up window and click Submit.
Unsubscribing from the public network bandwidth
Note:
Currently, only the bill-by-hour public network bandwidth can be unsubscribed from, while the bill-by-month one cannot, which can be terminated together with the instance though.
You can unsubscribe from the public network bandwidth only when there is no public network route in your instance; therefore, you need to delete public network routes first before proceeding.
2. Click Instance List on the left sidebar and then the ID/Name of your instance to enter the Basic Info page.
3. In the Access Mode module, click Delete in the Operation column for the public network route you want to delete and select the execution time in the pop-up window.
Right now: The public network route will be deleted immediately.
Custom time: You can select any time within the next 24 hours for scheduled deletion. The public network route will enter the state of waiting for deletion, and the scheduled deletion time can be modified in the Operation column.
Note:
Deleting the public network route will result in rebalancing. Do so with caution.
2. Click Instance List on the left sidebar and then the ID/Name of your instance to enter the Basic Info page.

Public network bandwidth is billed by hour. If it is changed multiple times within one hour, fees will be charged based on the highest bandwidth value.
