TCO example
When your workload sends data out to the internet, egress costs can dwarf compute costs. Provide your data source location and estimated traffic to unlock a full cost breakdown.
⚠ Run
make ingest-egress first — egress rates must be ingested before TCO params work.

}Same provider+region as data source yields egress_cost_eur_per_hour: 0. Cross-provider or cross-region adds egress cost.
