02 — Egress Multiplier Engine

Select the architectural patterns present in this environment. Each pattern contributes a documented multiplier factor. The effective volume — not the stated volume — drives the financial reality of your architecture.

Fan-Out Services +1.8× — one request triggers N downstream data pulls

Active Data Replication +1.5× — synchronous or near-sync cross-region replication

Retry / Failure Loop Exposure +1.3× — failed requests retransmit full payloads

Cross-Zone Microservice Chatter +1.4× — every AZ hop in the call chain is metered

AI Retrieval / Inference Pipeline +2.0× — RAG, vector DB retrieval, or inference fan-out

Multi-Region Write Pattern +1.6× — writes replicated to 2+ regions per transaction

Multipliers are additive above a 1.0× base. The Egress Multiplier Framework formalizes how architectural patterns amplify stated transfer volumes into financial exposure. Source: Egress Multiplier Boundary (rack2cloud.com).

Your architecture is the cost driver — not the per-GB rate. Eliminating one fan-out or replication pattern does more than negotiating a lower transfer price.

The cost is the signal.
The architecture is the problem.

Egress cost is an architecture decision made upstream — data locality, replication topology, interconnect design, and exit path. An Infrastructure Architecture Review maps what needs to change.
