Networking pricing
NAT, load balancing and data transfer make up most of a cloud networking bill. AWS and Google Cloud price each differently: AWS bills a NAT gateway by the hour, Google bills it by the VM; Google splits internet egress into Premium and Standard network tiers. Each page lists the rates by region and estimates a bill.
