To accurately calculate all AWS data transfer costs, or if you want to optimize the system design on your AWS prior to deployment, you first need to know exactly how to calculate AWS Data Transfer fees.<\/p>\n
AWS Data Transfer Infographic<\/h2>\n
First, please take a look at the AWS Data Transfer pricing for the ap-southeast-1 area as an infographic, which includes 6 main categories:<\/p>\n
(1) Data input \/ output from Internet<\/p>\n
(2) Data transfers between AWS Regions (Inter-Region data transfer)<\/p>\n
(3) Data transfers between Edge Locations and AWS Regions<\/p>\n
(4) Data transfers between AWS services via Public or Elastic IPs<\/p>\n
(5) Data transfers in the same region of Amazon EC2 instance<\/p>\n
(6) Data transferred via Elastic Load Balancing<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\nUnderstanding the Infographic<\/h2>\n
Regarding AWS Data Transfer, Amazon Web Services will typically charge a cost per GB of transfer (in USD). Transaction charges or hourly charges are not included in calculating data transmission charges but are usually included in Compute, Storage, or Database services.<\/p>\n

Data transfer in AWS from Internet (Inbound data transfer): <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The AWS cloud is not only the different worldwide regions and Availability Zones, but also Direct Connect links and AWS Edge Locations.<\/p>\n

Any data comes from the Internet into AWS is free<\/strong>, whether it is into AWS Regions, into Direct Connect, or into Edge Locations.<\/p>\n

Data transfer out to the Internet (Outbound data transfer): <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Transfers that send data out over the internet are billed at region-specific<\/strong> and tiered data transfer<\/strong> rates<\/p>\n
You can\u00a0see a specific, per-region chart with the tiered rates here<\/a>. Below, we\u2019ve included the rates for the Asia-Pacific Region (Singapore) as an example:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\nAlthough as a general rule data transfer to AWS from the internet (inbound data transfer<\/strong>) is free, there is a fee<\/a> for transferring data from AWS Regions to Direct Connect locations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
The cost of transferring data from AWS regions to the Direct Connect location depends on the source position of the AWS Region and the destination at the Direct Connect location. For example, transferring data from an Asia-Pacific Region (Singapore) to the Direct Connect location in Chunghwa Telecom, Taipei, Taiwan costs 0,0410 USD<\/strong> per GB. But, when transferring the same data from Asia-Pacific (Sydney) to the same Chunghwa Telecom, it costs 0,1107 USD<\/strong> per GB.<\/p>\n
(2) AWS Data Transfer between AWS Regions (Inter-Region data transfer):<\/h3>\n
![\"aws](\"https:\/\/vticloud.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/aws-data-transfer-between-aws-regions.png\")
<\/p>\nInter-region data transfer charges<\/strong> are based on the price of the AWS Region source location. Apply to most data transfer fee services such as EC2, S3, EKS, etc.<\/p>\n
For example:<\/strong> If you have a backup of web content stored in Amazon S3 in an Asia-Pacific (Singapore) Region and wish to expand your service to any other region, you will need the bar The rate is calculated according to the Asia-Pacific (Singapore) Region rate of 0.09 USD<\/strong> per GB transferred. Similar to US East (Ohio) to US West (Los Angeles) is 0.02 USD<\/strong> per GB.<\/p>\n
However, for that same data, if you need to switch from S3 buckets to any other AZ (in the same Region), the cost is free.<\/strong> See more under Data Transfer under S3 Pricing<\/a>.<\/p>\n
(3) AWS Data Transfer between Edge Locations and AWS Regions:<\/h3>\n
![\"aws](\"https:\/\/vticloud.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/aws-data-transfer-between-aws-regions-and-edge-locations.png\")
<\/p>\nEdge Locations are AWS datacenter hosting\/rentals and are part of the Amazon CloudFront CDN (Content Delivery Network) service. Those locations cache data such as videos, APIs, or applications for low latency access to that frontier traffic. Data transferred from AWS Regions to Edge Locations is free.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Data transferred from Edge Locations back to the Origin is charged accordingly Regional Data Transfer Out to Internet<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n
