We control our cloud egress costs by using cost management tools provided by cloud service providers to help analyze and forecast costs, and we regularly monitor data usage to help us identify which services or apps are responsible for higher egress costs, and in addition to these we also set budget thresholds to give alerts when costs approach or exceed those limits.CIO in Construction, 1,001 - 5,000 employees
Keeping a close eye on what goes IN-OUT from cloud perimeter. This gives a clear picture if there is any unwanted traffic is moving IN-OUT or any application, which may require infrastructural changes in setup. This is also integral part of management of our cloud security posture. Vice President Information Technology in Finance (non-banking), 201 - 500 employees

Next, I regularly assess the performance of my applications to optimize their efficiency and reduce unnecessary data transfers. By forecasting the future usage of these applications, I can anticipate potential cloud egress costs.
Finally, I consider data management strategy as one of the most critical aspects. By implementing data governance policies, I can determine which data should be permanently stored in the cloud and which data can be moved to less expensive or local storage solutions. This approach helps me streamline my expenses while ensuring optimal resource utilization.
By combining these various measures, I am able to improve the budgeting of my cloud egress costs and gain better control over my overall expenses. This allows me to make the most of my cloud usage while maintaining a responsible and cost-effective approach.
