If Your account exceeds Your monthly allowance, You will be charged an overage fee. Bandwidth utilization in excess of instance allocation is charged at $0.01 per GB in North American and Western European locations. Due to higher regional costs, Singapore and Tokyo (Japan) overage is priced at $0.025 per GB and Sydney (Australia) overage is priced at $0.05 per GB.

We expect regular usage patterns from individual component machines and the client solution as a whole.
