AWS Kinesis Video Streams

Question

I used Kinesis Video Streams using Cloud9.

When I checked the payment details, there was a Data Transfer item.
And there was data transmission to Tokyo and Ireland. Tokyo, I never set up delivery to Ireland, so why did this happen? Does the data transfer to any country happen automatically?

below is actual my billing details : 
 
AWS Data Transfer APN2-APN1-AWS-Out-Bytes$0.00
$0.080 per GB - Asia Pacific (Seoul) data transfer to Asia Pacific (Tokyo)0.000013 GB$0.00

AWS Data Transfer APN2-EU-AWS-Out-Bytes$0.00
$0.080 per GB - Asia Pacific (Seoul) data transfer to EU (Ireland)0.000004 GB$0.00

Is ec2 charge charged because of cloud9 in this case? Or is it because of kvs?

Answer

Hello,  When you provision a Cloud9 environment a cloudformation stack is deployed which in turn deploys an EC2 instance.  The EC2 instance will incur charges.  By default a provisioned Cloud9 environment is stopped after 30 minutes.

Regarding the data transfer charges; it's hard to to tell from the data provided if indeed those data transfer charges are related to Kinesis.  You may need to query the [Cost and Usage Reports](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cur/latest/userguide/what-is-cur.html) using Amazon Athena with a SQL query such as below (**Note:** Using Athena and running queries will incur additional costs):

`SELECT DISTINCT line_item_product_code ,
         line_item_usage_type ,
         product_from_location,
         product_to_location,
         line_item_resource_id,
         sum(line_item_usage_amount)/1024 AS "TB's", sum(line_item_blended_cost) AS cost
FROM 
WHERE line_item_usage_type LIKE '%Bytes%'
        AND (line_item_usage_type LIKE '%In%'
        OR line_item_usage_type LIKE '%Out%'
        OR line_item_usage_type LIKE 'Nat%')
        AND (product_from_location = ''
        OR product_from_location LIKE '%(%')
GROUP BY  line_item_product_code, line_item_usage_type, product_from_location, product_to_location, line_item_resource_id
ORDER BY  sum(line_item_blended_cost) desc`

Hope this helps,
