Hello Jbudi,

The data transfer between availability zone is not free. You can check out the pricing here:

I found this explanation in the practice exam

The data moving in and out of Azure data centers, as well as data moving between Azure datacenters, is called bandwidth.

Remember these concepts regarding data transfer:

– Data transfer to Azure is always free

– Data transfer between Availability Zones is free

– Data transfer within the same Availability Zone is free

– Data transfer between Azure regions and to other continents is not free

Hi Jbudi,

Right now data between availability zones are free. But starting from July 1, 2021, Data transfer billing between Virtual machines across availability zones will begin.
