This is confusing because our bandwidth metrics / billing system is somewhat limited, so we can’t make it as nuanced as we’d like.
As of right now, you are billed for outbound traffic from the region a VM is running in. If you have a VM running in DFW, we charge $0.02 per GB that leaves its network interface.
We don’t currently charge for traffic leaving the proxy. So if you have users connect from India, but your VM is running in DFW, we charge $0.02 per GB.
Once we have a better system in place, we’ll change how we bill for bandwidth:
- Data that stays in the same region at $0.00 per GB
- Data that stays in our network, but leaves a region will be billed, but at a much reduced rate. Less than half our current prices
- Data that leaves our network will end up costing roughly what we have on our pricing page
