Each hardware unit in your cloud, bare metal, or storage cluster deployment comes with a certain amount of egress. For use cases that exceed the included egress, OpenMetal charges by the megabit at the 95% percentile. This will flatten bursting and leads to a more controlled cost. For most use cases this style of averaging your usage has significant advantage over per GB billing.

*To convert to Mbps from TBs we use a typical traffic pattern where 70% of your traffic occurs within an 8 hour period each day. Your pattern may vary and costs are lower if your traffic pattern is spread out further and higher if more concentrated.
*Included with hardware uses the same TB to Mbps conversion. We used egress allotments for V2 Large – 6TB per server. See the hardware specs for the different allotments.

Cloud Egress Pricing FAQs, Eligibility, and Usage Restrictions
If you have a specific budget and are willing to cap certain types of traffic our team can recommend ways of controlling this from within your cloud or from your bare metal. One benefit of 95% percentile billing is that if you see half way through the month that are on pace to exceed your budget, you can decrease your usage and your average will fall.
