Data processing fee

The Managed Protection Plus data processing fee meters the data egressed to the internet from all protected resources for every project that is enrolled in Managed Protection Plus. The data processing fee is billed at the billing account level, aggregating usage across all protected resources in all projects enrolled in Managed Protection Plus.

Protected resources include all backend services of the following load balancer types in each enrolled project:

  • An external HTTP(S) load balancer
  • An SSL proxy load balancer
  • A TCP proxy load balancer

Prices are per egressed GB. For example, for workloads behind a supported Google Cloud load balancer, the data processing fee includes Premium internet egress and Standard internet egress with Network Service Tiers, and egress through Carrier Peering. The charge is $0.05 per GB egressed for the first 100 TB and $0.04 per GB for the next 400 TB. The following table contains complete pricing:

TBs egressed Cloud Load Balancing, internet, and Cloud Interconnect Cloud CDN Cloud DNS

101-500 $0.04 $0.020 Included
501-1000 $0.03 $0.015 Included

If a backend service has a Google Cloud Armor security policy associated with it, you can use the custom headers feature with that backend service without any additional charge for the custom headers feature.

If you pay in a currency other than USD, the prices listed in your currency on Google Cloud Platform SKUs apply.
