$171.00 a month at 2,000 GB out

Egress is billed on what leaves the provider's network, so the figure that matters is not what your users download but what your origin sends. Cache hits served by a CDN usually are not charged at origin rates, retries and range requests are charged twice, and traffic between regions inside the same provider is often billed as if it went to the public internet. Read the meter, not the estimate: this arithmetic is only as good as the 2,000 GB you put into it.

What this cannot tell you

  • Arithmetic on the numbers you enter. It does not read any provider price list and it is not connected to your account or your bill.
  • Providers meter egress differently. Inter-region traffic, load balancer processing and request charges are often billed separately from the per-GB rate, so a real invoice usually has more lines on it than this.
