Egress
Answer in brief
Egress is data leaving a provider’s network, which some providers bill by the gigabyte and others include in the price.
Egress in practice
Egress matters when you move datasets, checkpoints or model files out of a provider, or serve large outputs to users elsewhere. It does not appear in the GPU-hour.
The rate is rarely on the GPU pricing page. Look for it under network or storage pricing, and add it to your brief with the amount of data you expect to move each month.
