Billing item Description Billing method
Outbound traffic over the Internet Traffic generated when data is transferred from OSS to the client over the Internet.
OSS provides the free quota of 5 GB for outbound traffic over the Internet.
  • Pay-as-you-go:
    • Traffic usage ≤ 5 GB: free of charge.
    • Traffic usage > 5 GB: Fees = Unit price of the current tier × Total traffic usage in the current billing cycle.

      Example: A total of 100 GB of outbound traffic over the Internet is generated when you use a bucket located in the US (Virginia) region. 2 GB is generated in the current billing cycle. 100 GB falls into the tier of 5 GB to 10 TB. The fees for outbound traffic over the Internet in the current billing cycle are calculated as follows: Fees = USD 0.076 × 2 (GB) = USD 0.152.

    Note Unit prices of traffic fees in mainland China regions vary with different periods of time. The prices on the actual buy page apply.
