Message Queue

Distributed messaging systems for building scalable, decoupled architectures.

Default Region: NL - Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Zone ams3

Additional regions may be available based on your deployment requirements. Choose a region closest to your users or application servers to minimize latency.

Resource Credits

All deployments consume resource credits from your account balance:

• Current Credits: Displayed in the top right (e.g., 377 / 10,000)
• Credits are consumed based on compute resources, disk size, and running time
• Monitor your credit usage to ensure uninterrupted service
