Description

Billing Mode

Inbound intranet/Internet traffic

The amount of data transferred to OBS over an intranet or the Internet.

Free

Outbound intranet traffic

The amount of data transferred from OBS to ECSs, CCE, and BMSs in the same region over a Huawei Cloud intranet.

You must configure network settings before accessing OBS over the intranet in a given region. For details, see Accessing OBS from an ECS over an Intranet.

Free

Outbound Internet traffic

The amount of data (in the Standard storage class) transferred out of OBS over the Internet.

After Deep Archive, Archive and Infrequent Access objects are restored, the outbound Internet traffic generated when you download those restored objects can only be billed on a pay-per-use basis.

NOTE:
  • Internet traffic is generated as long as data is downloaded from OBS over the Internet, regardless of whether the download is successful or not.
  • The outbound Internet traffic generated when you download objects in the Infrequent Access, Deep Archive, and Archive storage class cannot be covered by outbound Internet traffic packages.

Pay-per-use

Resource packages (outbound Internet traffic)

Cross-region replication traffic

The amount of data transferred from one region to another.

Pay-per-use

CDN pull traffic

The amount of data pulled by Huawei Cloud CDN from OBS 3.0 buckets. For details, see Billing for CDN-Accelerated Access to OBS. Downloading data from OBS 2.0 buckets generates outbound Internet traffic, which can be covered by a matched outbound Internet traffic package.
