The same great technology, now with an even smaller entry point! The IBM Messaging team is very happy to announce the introduction of new 0.5 VPC queue managers.

Is the IBM MQ on Cloud small queue manager size more than you need? Well, we’ve introduced the Extra-Small queue manager size, where you can now deploy 0.5 VPC queue managers. Perfect for when you don’t need the full power of a 1 VPC queue manager. This smaller queue manager size of 0.5 VPC means you can now get up to 2 queue managers per VPC.

The Custom Enterprise Plan retains its 1 VPC minimum purchase amount, and that is now enough to create two queue managers.
