Understanding Bandwidth Costs

Cloud egress (outbound) bandwidth is one of the most significant and least predictable infrastructure costs. Providers charge differently: some by the GB with tiered pricing, others offer generous included bandwidth. During a DDoS attack, unwanted inbound traffic can also trigger massive egress costs from your applications responding to malicious requests.

AWS charges $0.09/GB for the first 10TB of egress, while Hetzner includes 20TB free with most servers. This difference means the same 10TB workload costs $900/month on AWS versus potentially $0 on Hetzner. Understanding these costs helps you choose the right provider and budget accurately.

How DDoS Attacks Inflate Bandwidth Bills

Volumetric DDoS attacks can generate hundreds of gigabytes of traffic per hour. Even with inbound traffic being free on most providers, your servers' responses to malicious requests generate billable egress traffic. Flowtriq helps you detect and mitigate attacks in seconds, preventing runaway bandwidth costs.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does server bandwidth cost on AWS vs Hetzner?

AWS charges $0.09/GB outbound; Hetzner includes a large free bandwidth allocation then ~€1/TB overage. For most workloads Hetzner is 10–20× cheaper than AWS on bandwidth alone. GCP and Azure are similarly expensive to AWS at $0.085–0.09/GB.

How does a DDoS attack affect my bandwidth bill?

A 10 Gbps flood generates ~108 TB/day of traffic. At AWS rates ($0.09/GB) that's $9,720/day in overage before your provider mitigates. Most providers suspend the account or null-route you before sending a bill of that size — but some charge first.

What is the cheapest cloud bandwidth in 2026?

Hetzner and OVH consistently offer the lowest per-GB rates with large included allocations. AWS, GCP, and Azure charge premium egress ($0.05–0.09/GB) making them expensive for high-traffic or DDoS-exposed workloads.
