AWS Data Transfer Out - NEGATIVE: egress rates not accessible via static fetch

No price recorded. AWS egress pricing is JS-rendered and was not accessible via static HTML fetch on 2026-10-04.

lead_time_weeks is null because NO NUMBER APPLIES: this record prices a non-accelerator input (electricity, egress, PUE/uptime) and lists accelerators only as the load that consumes it. There is no order-to-delivery step, so a lead time is the wrong quantity rather than a missing one.

EAR 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) + EAR 744.23/744.6 (Entity, Unverified, MEU list screening of the end user) + the advanced-computing IaaS obligations of 91 FR 1684 (consignee KYC, and management/limitation of IaaS access to the hardware)

LAYER 1, EXPORT LICENCE: under the Jan 2026 BIS rule 91 FR 1684 (effective 2026-01-15) the license review policy for advanced-computing commodities with TPP < 21,000 AND total DRAM bandwidth < 6,500 GB/s - the NVIDIA H200 and AMD MI325X are the rule's named examples - moved from PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL to CASE-BY-CASE REVIEW, but only for exports FROM THE UNITED STATES to end users located in China or Macau, and only against six exporter certifications filed via SNAP-R before shipment: (1) items below the thresholds with the count of units shipped in the US; (2) sufficient US supply, judged 'taking into account normal lead times'; (3) no diversion of global foundry capacity away from US end users; (4) aggregate China+Macau shipments <= 50% of total US end-use shipments of that product; (5) no end-user or use prohibition; (6) the consignee runs rigorous KYC. Every shipment must then pass a qualified third-party testing lab - US-headquartered, not controlled by a D:5/Macau entity, no ownership stake in any party, qualification revocable by BIS at any time - verifying TPP, total DRAM bandwidth, interconnect bandwidth and copackaged DRAM capacity. Reexports and in-country transfers of the same chips to China/Macau REMAIN PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL. LAYER 2, END-USER AND PARENT SCREENING: per BIS guidance of 2026-05-31 a licence is required where the consignee is HEADQUARTERED in Country Group D:5 (15 CFR part 740 supplement no. 1) or Macau OR whose ULTIMATE PARENT COMPANY is so headquartered - even when the consignee itself sits outside D:5/Macau. The requirement sits at EAR 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) for destinations outside the US, with an exception available only under the license exception at 740.2(a)(9)(ii). The destination country alone therefore never answers the question; screen the parent. LAYER 3, REMAINING LIMITS: exports to D:5/Macau-headquartered OR -parented entities stay PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL wherever the buyer sits, and the AI Diffusion Rule that would have set a country-tier structure on who could lawfully buy what was RESCINDED on 2025-05-13 and is not being enforced, so any recorded status rests on the instruments named here rather than on tiering.

NEGATIVE SUPPLY RECORD. AWS egress pricing could not be extracted from the static HTML of the EC2 pricing page. The page confirms that AWS uses tiered pricing based on aggregate monthly Data Transfer Out, with 100 GB/month free, but the specific per-GB rates are rendered client-side. This is a known barrier for cost modeling. Egress is a significant cost component for inference workloads that serve model outputs to users - a 1MB output per request at 1M requests/month = 1TB/month of egress. AWS egress rates are known to be approximately $0.09/GB for the first 10TB/month (based on prior knowledge, NOT verified in this fetch), but this figure should be verified via the AWS Price List API or Pricing Calculator before use in cost models. EXPORT CONTROL (2026-10-04, mechanism-level; sources spl-bis-2026-05-d5-guidance, spl-bis-2026-01-advanced-computing-case-by-case): renting capacity does NOT remove the export-control question, it relocates it. Providing remote access to controlled computing capability can constitute a transfer under the EAR, so the provider must screen the end user; and separately, under the 91 FR 1684 licence regime the consignee must run KYC procedures to prevent unauthorized remote access and must manage and limit IaaS access to the hardware - obligations pushed onto the customer, who must be told to implement them. For a customer headquartered or parented in Country Group D:5 or Macau the 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) end-user/parent test can bite even when the capacity is consumed in a permitted region. Recorded true because the underlying hardware is controlled and the provider carries the screening duty, not because access to a US region is itself restricted. LEAD TIME: null - correct and not a gap. A token-priced serverless API is provisioned on request, so there is no lead time to publish; the binding constraint when a model is at capacity is provider-side queuing and any per-account concurrency limit, which this repo records in notes where a vendor publishes one (see the DeepSeek concurrency figures already here). Deliberately NOT recorded: any 'model capacity lead time' estimate, because vendors publish none and the SEO 'GPU lead time' numbers that circulate do not apply to a rented endpoint.
