HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise is a managed, enterprise-grade MQTT backbone for production-critical connected systems. It is built for organizations that need the scale, security, and reliability of HiveMQ Enterprise without running the broker themselves.

With HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise, you get managed MQTT infrastructure for mission-critical workloads. It provides custom scale, enterprise security, advanced observability, and expert support. You avoid the operational burden of deploying and maintaining the broker yourself. HiveMQ provisions, scales, patches, and operates your dedicated broker with high availability. Your teams focus on your product, not on broker operations.

A Managed, Support-Driven Service

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise is a managed service. HiveMQ handles the configuration of your deployment through your account team and support. This configuration covers listeners, custom domains, private networking, authentication methods, and feature enablement. You do not configure these settings yourself.

HiveMQ performs most configuration in HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise on your behalf. This documentation describes what is available in a Cloud Enterprise deployment and how to reach and connect to your deployment over the network. For changes to your deployment, contact your Technical Account Manager (TAM), Customer Success Manager (CSM), or HiveMQ support.

This support-driven model shapes the rest of the documentation. Instead of configuration procedures, you find the feature set, cloud-specific restrictions, and network access paths to your deployment.

Who HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise Is For

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise is the best fit for sophisticated or mission-critical MQTT workloads that need more than shared infrastructure or standard limits. Typical drivers include:

  • Custom throughput and scale beyond standard plan limits.

  • Stricter uptime and support expectations for production environments.

  • Enterprise security controls and dedicated infrastructure.

If downtime, security gaps, or scaling limits are unacceptable for your connected systems, HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise provides managed enterprise infrastructure designed for serious production workloads.

What You Get

Dedicated MQTT Broker with Custom Scale

HiveMQ provisions and operates a dedicated broker for you. You get custom throughput and scale for your workload, not the shared infrastructure and standard limits of lower-tier plans.

Enterprise-Grade Security

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise supports full role-based access control (RBAC), client certificates (mTLS), and OAuth and JWT authentication through multiple methods.

Authentication and authorization support in HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise differs from the self-operated broker in some areas. For example, HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise does not support LDAP. For the precise list of supported and unsupported methods, see TLS and Authentication and Feature Availability.

Advanced Observability

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise provides more comprehensive metrics, logs, and traces than lower-tier plans. You can ship logs and metrics to your own endpoints that use the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP). For details, see Observability: Logs, Metrics, and Tracing in the feature availability reference.

Premium Support and Enterprise Options

HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise includes premium support packages and enterprise options. These options include PrivateLink private networking, custom integrations, and higher service-level agreement (SLA) tiers.

How HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise Differs

Compared to Cloud Starter and Cloud Serverless

HiveMQ Cloud Starter and Cloud Serverless are shared environments with standard limits, suited to development and smaller production workloads. HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise is for production environments that need custom scale, a dedicated broker, and enterprise security and support.

Compared to HiveMQ Software

HiveMQ Software is a self-operated product that you download, host, and manage yourself. HiveMQ Cloud Enterprise delivers the same proven HiveMQ capability without your organization operating the platform itself.
