- Amazon MQ pricing
-
Amazon MQ's cost depends on the broker instance's run time, monthly storage use, and data transfer fees. The price also varies based on instance size and the chosen broker type - single instance, 3-node cluster, or active/standby. There are two storage options - durability or throughput optimized. The AWS Free Tier offers up to 750 hours per month of a single-instance mq.t2.micro or mq.t3.micro broker and certain storage amounts for one year.
