Network egress (data leaving GCP) is a major cost driver. Cloud CDN reduces egress costs because Google charges less for data served from the edge cache. Dedicated Interconnect reduces costs because Google offers discounted egress rates for traffic routed over private interconnects compared to the public internet.
