This is about the operation, not about bandwidth the way that I read it. All providers have prices for bandwidth and prices for different "tiers" of operations (store, retrieve, delete, list, etc). The way I read it is that bandwidth is always 100% free, and storage operations are free under a certain threshold. I hope I'm right ;)

This is correct. Bandwidth (ingress and egress) always free, regardless of volume. Transactions free at low volume (~<1/sec) but we’ll charge at higher volumes. Storage we charge for. For both transactions and storage, we aim to be at least 10% less expensive than S3. And, again, for the sake of absolute clarity: egress/ingress always free.

Does this mean we should contact our enterprise account manager regarding our existing spend? For the sake of absolute clarity: we're currently paying for bandwidth
