- Definition
- Billing Dimensions in Confluent Cloud: fully managed and custom connectors are billed by "Cost per task per hour" plus throughput "Cost per GB written or read per hour"; Dedicated clusters add a dedicated Connect cluster charged per hour.
- Counting rules
- Task base charges keep accruing while a connector is paused; only deletion stops them. Throughput is measured on decompressed data as reported by the connector. Self-managed connectors carry no connector charge but cause Kafka ingress, egress and storage charges.
