This topic describes the regions where MaxCompute is available and MaxCompute connection methods. This topic also describes issues arising from use with other Alibaba Cloud services such as Elastic Compute Service (ECS), Tablestore, and Object Storage Service (OSS).

- MaxCompute endpoint: used to send all requests except for data upload and download requests to MaxCompute. For example, you can send a request to create a table, delete a function, or create a job.
- MaxCompute Tunnel endpoint: used to upload data to and download data from MaxCompute.
To upload and download data through MaxCompute Tunnel, you can initiate a request
by using the MaxCompute Tunnel endpoint.
Note
- Downloading data through MaxCompute Tunnel is charged at different prices in different regions, depending on the specific deployment and network connection status of MaxCompute Tunnel.
- If your Tunnel endpoint needs to connect over the internal network, you must configure an internal MaxCompute endpoint. Otherwise, traffic may be routed to the Internet and you may be charged for downloads over the Internet.
Connection methods and billing rules for data downloads
- Internet
- Alibaba Cloud classic network
- Alibaba Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
Data uploads
Uploading data through MaxCompute Tunnel is free of charge, as shown in the preceding figure.
Data downloads
- If the source and destination are in the same region, downloading data through MaxCompute Tunnel is free of charge over both the classic network and VPC.
- If the source and destination are not in the same region or cannot connect in the
same region, data is downloaded through MaxCompute Tunnel over the Internet. You are
charged for data downloads over the Internet.
Note The deployment and network connection status of MaxCompute Tunnel may vary with regions. Therefore, we cannot guarantee permanent connectivity for MaxCompute Tunnel if you select the Alibaba Cloud classic network or VPC.
Connectivity configurations for accessing external tables
MaxCompute 2.0 supports reading and writing OSS data and Tablestore data. For more information, see Access OSS unstructured data and Access Tablestore unstructured data.
- If MaxCompute is in the same region as Tablestore or OSS, we recommend that you select the Alibaba Cloud classic network or VPC connection method. You can also select the Internet connection method.
- If MaxCompute is not in the same region as Tablestore or OSS, we recommend that you select the Internet connection method. If you select the Alibaba Cloud classic network or VPC connection method, we do not guarantee network connectivity.
