How do you optimize network data transfer costs?

Q: How do you optimize network data transfer costs?

> * **Keep Traffic Local**: Avoid transferring data across regions or Availability Zones (AZs) where possible; cross-AZ transfer incurs charges. * **VPC Endpoints**: Route internal traffic destined for AWS services (like S3) using Gateway Endpoints instead of routing out and back through expensive NAT Gateways. * **Use CDNs**: Use Amazon CloudFront to cache content closer to users, reducing repeat origin server data transfer costs.
