Cloud Interconnect pricing

This document explains Cloud Interconnect pricing details.

If you pay in a currency other than USD, the prices listed in your currency onCloud Platform SKUsapply.

Dedicated Interconnect

Google charges you on an hourly basis for both Cloud Interconnect connections and VLAN attachments.The hourly charge for each resource, either Cloud Interconnect connection or VLAN attachment,is charged to the project that owns the resource.

Data transfer from your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks through your Cloud Interconnect connections is discounted compared togeneral network pricing for Google Cloud. Data transfer out pricing depends on the number of gibibytes (GiB) transferred and the location of your Cloud Interconnect connection.

This discounted pricing applies only to traffic that originates in the regionwhere the VLAN attachment is located. You can use VLAN attachmentsto access services located in a different region than the VLAN attachment. In this case,you are charged standard cross-region rates for traffic between the region wherethe VLAN attachment is located and the region where the service is located.

Cloud Interconnect data transfer out charges accrue to the project that owns the VLAN attachment. The project that owns the Cloud Interconnect connection is not billed for the data transfer. Specifically, costs for data transfer from a VLAN attachment in a Shared VPC service project, which travels through a Cloud Interconnect connection in a different host project, are attributed to the service project.

ForHA VPN over Cloud Interconnect deployments, you are charged for yourDedicated Interconnect connections, VLAN attachments,HA VPN tunnels, and regional external IP addresses, if an IP address is assigned to aVPN gateway but not used by a tunnel.

In terms of HA VPN over Cloud Interconnect data transfer, you are charged only forCloud Interconnect data transfer out. You are not charged for Cloud VPNdata transfer.

Partner Interconnect

Google charges you on an hourly basis for VLAN attachments, depending on their capacity. The hourly charges are billed to the project that owns the VLAN attachment. Your service provider might also charge you for services such as using their network, which isn't included in your Google Cloud bills. For information about their pricing, contact your service provider.

Data transfer from your VPC networks though your attachments is discounted compared togeneral network pricing for Google Cloud. Outbound data transfer pricing depends on the number of gibibytes (GiB) transferred and the location of your Cloud Interconnect connection.

This discounted pricing applies only to traffic that originates in the region where the VLAN attachment is located. You can use VLAN attachments to access services located in a different region than the VLAN attachment. In this case, you are charged standard cross-region rates for traffic between the region where the VLAN attachment is located and the region where the service is located.

Cloud Interconnect data transfer out charges accrue to the project that owns the VLAN attachment. The project that owns the Cloud Interconnect connection is not billed for data transfer. Specifically, costs for data transfer traffic from a VLAN attachment in a Shared VPC service project, which travels through a Cloud Interconnect connection in a different host project, are attributed to the service project.

For HA VPN over Cloud Interconnect deployments, you are charged for your VLAN attachments, HA VPN tunnels, and regional external IP addresses, if an address is assigned to a VPN gateway but not used by a tunnel.

In terms of HA VPN over Cloud Interconnect data transfer, you are charged only for Cloud Interconnect outbound data transfer. You are not charged for Cloud VPN data transfer.

Pricing scenarios

This section describes different pricing scenarios for how Google Cloud calculates pricing for Cloud Interconnect outbound data transfer; that is, when a virtual machine (VM) instance or a non-VM Google Cloud product or service sends traffic to your on-premises location over a VLAN attachment located in the same or different geographical location:

• A VM in the same region as a VLAN attachment, using either regional or global VPC dynamic routing
• A VM in the same continent but different region than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing
• A VM in a different continent than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing
• A VM in a different continent than a VLAN attachment, using VPC Network Peering
• A non-VM Google Cloud product or service in a different location than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing

Note: You have to pay standard inter-region charges fortraffic between the region of the VM and the region of the VLAN attachment, which is more if they arein different continents. This applies to non-VM traffic as well.

For more information about costs for each scenario, including data transfer charges between regions within a continent and between continents, seeGeneral network pricing.

A VM in the same region as a VLAN attachment, using either regional or global VPC dynamic routing

Note: The dynamic routing mode that you use does not impact thepricing.

In this scenario, there are two regions within North America,us-west1 andus-east1. These regions useVPCregional dynamicrouting provided by Cloud Router. In this scenario, it doesn't matter which dynamic routing mode you use.

You order a Cloud Interconnect connection running from youron-premises location toSan Jose (SJC) and create two VLANattachments over that connection. One VLAN attachment goes to regionus-east1, and the other VLAN attachment goes to regionus-west1.

If you send traffic from a VM inus-east1 or from a VM inus-west1 to your on-premises location over yourCloud Interconnect connection in SJC, you are charged the following rates:

• Cloud Interconnect data transfer out charges for North America (because that is where the Cloud Interconnect connection is located).
• You arenot charged region-to-region data transfer charges because the VMs are using a VLAN attachment in the same region.

Note: Unless you enableglobal dynamic routing for your VPC network by using Cloud Router, your regions without a VLAN attachment have no access to your Cloud Interconnect connection. This also means that you can't accidentally incur intercontinental data transfer charges if you have regions located on different continents.

A VM in the same continent but different region than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing

In this scenario, you have VMs in two regions located in North America,us-west1 andus-east1. You have enabledglobaldynamic routing for your VPC network by using Cloud Router.Global dynamic routing enables VLAN attachments in one region to be usedby one or more VMs located in another region.

You order a Cloud Interconnect connection running from youron-premises location toSan Jose (SJC) and create one VLANattachment over that connection tous-west1. You then send trafficfrom a VM inus-east1 to your on-premises location through theVLAN attachment located inus-west1. You are then chargedthe following rates:

• Region-to-region data transfer charges for forwarding traffic fromus-east1 to the VLAN attachment inus-west1. The VLAN attachment inus-west1 is considered the source of traffic.
• Cloud Interconnect data transfer charges for North America for traffic from regionus-west1 to your on-premises location.

A VM in a different continent than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing

This scenario is the same as the preceding example, except that one region,us-west1, is located in North America, and the other region,asia-east1, is located in Asia. Sending traffic between regions ondifferent continents results in more expensive inter-region data transfer rates.

The only way to send traffic fromasia-east1 overCloud Interconnect in North America is by enabling VPCglobal dynamic routing. This makes the VLAN attachment inus-west1 available to VMs in all regions in your VPCnetwork. You are then charged the following rates:

• Intercontinental region-to-region data transfer charges for traffic forwarded fromasia-east1 tous-west1.
• Cloud Interconnect data transfer charges for North America for traffic from regionus-west1 to your on-premises location.

A VM in a different continent than a VLAN attachment, using VPC Network Peering

This scenario is similar to the preceding example, except that there are two VPC networks connected through VPC Network Peering. Sending traffic between regions results in the same rates as the preceding example that uses global dynamic routing.

You send traffic fromus-east4 to your on-premises network overCloud Interconnect in Asia by using VPC Network Peering. You are then charged the following rates:

• Intercontinental region-to-region data transfer charges for traffic forwarded fromus-east4 toasia-northeast1.
• Cloud Interconnect data transfer charges for Asia for traffic from regionasia-northeast1 to your on-premises location.

A non-VM Google Cloud product or service in a different location than a VLAN attachment, using global VPC dynamic routing

In addition to the preceding scenarios, Cloud Interconnect data transfercharges apply to traffic sent from a Google Cloud product or service thatis not a VM to your on-premises location over a VLAN attachment. Youpay the product's data transfer charges to reach the region of the VLANattachment, and then pay the Cloud Interconnect data transfer out charges basedon the continent where the Cloud Interconnect connection is located.

Note: For information about data transfer charges for other Google Cloud products not described in this example, see the pricing page for that product.

The following example describes charges for traffic transferring out from aCloud Storage bucket in a different region inNorth Americathan the region where the VLAN attachment is located.

In this scenario, you have resources in two regions located in North America,us-west1 (Oregon) andnorthamerica-northeast1 (Montreal). You have enabledglobal dynamic routing for your VPC network by using Cloud Router.

You order a Cloud Interconnect connection running fromyour on-premises location toSan Jose (SJC) and create one VLANattachment over that connection tous-west1. You then send traffic from aCloud Storage bucket innorthamerica-northeast1 to your on-premiseslocation through the VLAN attachment located inus-west1. You arecharged the following rates:

• The Cloud Storage data transfer cost for forwarding traffic from a Cloud Storage bucket innorthamerica-northeast1 to a VLAN attachment inus-west1.
• Cloud Interconnect data transfer charges forNorth America for traffic from regionus-west1 to your on-premises location (because that is where your Cloud Interconnect connection is located).

If the Cloud Storage bucket is located in a different continent thanthe VLAN attachment, you pay Cloud Storage intercontinentaldata transfer charges to reach the VLAN attachment inus-west1.

For a full list of pricing scenarios for Cloud Storage, see theCloud Storage pricing page.
