> Snowflake stores data in S3 in Snowflake's various AWS accounts. Egress fees are necessary when performing anything outside of Snowflake.
Egress fees are only if you are unloading into a different region/cloud. If your data is in SF AWS us-east-1, and you unload to your S3 in us-east-1, there is no egress fee.
> Snowflake charges a per-byte fee for data egress when users transfer data from a Snowflake account into a different region on the same cloud platform or into a completely different cloud platform. Data transfers within the same region are free.
