In Tencent Cloud, the charge for intercommunication between cloud network instances (such as Virtual Machines) within the same region depends on the network type and configuration.
- Basic Network (Legacy): Instances in the same region communicate via the internal network at no additional cost.
- VPC (Virtual Private Cloud):
- Intra-VPC Communication: Free if instances are in the same VPC and subnet.
- Inter-VPC Communication (Same Region): Requires a Peering Connection or VPC Network Peering, which is free for basic usage. However, if using NAT Gateway or VPN, there may be associated fees.
Example:
- Two Linux servers in the same VPC and subnet in Guangzhou region communicate via private IP—no charge.
- If they are in different VPCs but the same region, setting up a Peering Connection enables free traffic between them.
For specific pricing, refer to Tencent Cloud’s official documentation or console for real-time rates, as some services (e.g., bandwidth overages) may incur costs.
