Egress
Answer in brief
Egress is data leaving a provider’s network, which some providers bill by the gigabyte and others include in the price.
Egress in practice
Egress matters when the GPU and the data are in different places. Pulling a dataset across the country, or out of one provider into another, takes time and may be billed.
Place the GPU near the data when you can. If the data must stay in the United States, check that both ends of every transfer are in US regions.
