A company is evaluating the cost implications of transferring data between their Amazon S3 bucket in the US East (N. Virginia) region and their Amazon EC2 instance located in the US West (Oregon) region. What is the cost scenario for the data transfer from S3 to EC2 in this case?
Data transfer is free since it involves intra-service data transfer.
There are inter-region transfer costs associated with the data movement.
Data transfer costs only apply to transfers from EC2 to S3, not vice versa.
Data transfer is billed only when transferring data out to the internet.
Data transfers within the same AWS service across different regions are charged at the standard inter-region data transfer rates. Therefore, data transfer from an Amazon S3 bucket to an Amazon EC2 instance across regions is not free of charge. The key point to remember is that there is a cost associated with inter-region data transfers, even within the same service (in this case, AWS).
