Apigee Egress/Ingress cost || Backend services on AWS

[gauravbm82]

We are using Apigee (SaaS) PayG model. We are thinking of scaling it out and want to clear one doubt.

Right now we have the below setup. Our API services are hosted on AWS and proxies are set up on Apigee. There is a site to site VPN connection between two clouds.

We need to understand when an API call is made from the external App, for that single API call we will have to consider egress cost twice? Since Apigee will call the backend API service on AWS out from the GCP and then also respond with the response payload.

Or for single API call there will be only one ingress and egress cost involved?

Hi,

I think, the egress cost will be for Response to customer + request sent to AWS from Google point.

But yes, AWS might take further egress of actual Response.

Yes, this is what I suspect as well -> Response to customer + request sent to AWS from Google point. So just need confirmation whether my assumption is correct.
