Can you transfer data out of AWS with Snowcone? I thought it was all transfer in, which is free.

- amichal 6y agoA screenshot in the article implies that you "Export from S3" https://media.amazonwebservices.com/blog/2020/snow_job_type_3.png https://media.amazonwebservices.com/blog/2020/snow_job_type_...
- angry_octet 6y agoYou can transfer out, but you pay the similarly insane egress costs. Somewhat cheaper, but still bonkers. Snowball/snowcone, US East $0.03 per GB ~-> $300 per 10TB If you're buying disks at scale that's almost the cost of the disk. Network egress $0.15 per GB $0.08 per GB (>150TB/month) It makes sense for the occassional transfer so you're not paying for expensive EBS storage for stuff you don't need cloud access to.
