No reads from S3 are free. All outgoing traffic from AWS is charged no matter what.
- simtel20 6mo agoReads from s3 via an s3 endpoint inside a vpc to an interface inside of that vpc is not billed.
- deepsun 6mo agoS3 GET operations are billed anyway. Traffic may be free, but not the operations.
- MontyCarloHall 6mo agoS3 GET requests have negligible cost, at $0.0004/1000 requests. Upload requests are $0.005/1000, which is also negligible.
- deepsun 6mo agoI object, we once paid $40k for that "negligible cost".
- simtel20 6mo agoOk, but to be clear you said all outgoing traffic is charged. The API call price is something else, it's not part of the outgoing traffic.
- deepsun 6mo agoYes, and stand by it: > All outgoing traffic from AWS is charged no matter what. Your example with VPC endpoints does not leave AWS. Sorry for the confusion you probably thought about outgoing from S3, but I mean outgoing from AWS.
