CloudFront bills $0.085/GB egress in North America tiered down to $0.020/GB at extreme volume, plus $0.0075–$0.0100 per 10K requests, plus origin egress. Regional price classes drop the bill 30–60% by skipping expensive geographies. Real-time logs at $0.01 per million entries surprise high-traffic sites. Lambda@Edge is dramatically more expensive than CloudFront Functions.
