====== S3TA Exam Notes (charges vs request/storage) ====== **Scenario like the NASA question:** * Upload 3 GB from the internet using S3TA * Result: S3TA did not accelerate **Correct billing logic:** 1) No S3TA charge if it’s not likely faster. 2) Data transfer **from the internet into AWS** is not charged. → So the exam answer: **no transfer charges** for that upload. **Hard words:** * *ingress* /ˈɪnɡres/: chiều vào (internet → AWS) * *egress* /ˈiːɡres/: chiều ra (AWS → internet)
