“Extra Bandwidth” in Vultr

With Vultr, we have access to a feature called “Extra Bandwidth,” which enables us to acquire more data transfer capacity than what is included in the chosen VPS plan’s regular allocation. The “Extra Bandwidth” offered by Vultr is broken down as the following:

1. Each Vultr plan includes a set amount of data transfer capacity when we build a virtual server (VPS). This bandwidth will also decide the amount of data that transfers to and from the VPS via the network. The bandwidth allotment is typically calculated monthly.

2. We may go over the typical bandwidth allotment included with the VPS package if the application or website has higher-than-expected traffic or data transfer requirements. Here, “Extra Bandwidth” enters the picture.

3. Vultr also gives us the choice to purchase additional bandwidth above the allotted amount in the plan. This additional bandwidth meets the need for data-intensive apps. It can also manage unanticipated traffic spikes. So, it’s vital to remember that the price of additional bandwidth changes depending on how much we buy.

4. Depending on how much extra data transmission capacity we need, “Extra Bandwidth” will cost us more or less. We can select the additional bandwidth pricing tier that best suits the demands and budget from those offered by Vultr.

5. We have also the option to buy extra bandwidth on a temporary or long-term basis. Events or promotions that generate a lot of traffic for a brief period of time may benefit from temporary bandwidth upgrades. If the application routinely uses more bandwidth than the plan allows, there will be a need of permanent increase.

6. The price of “Extra Bandwidth” is charged separately from the price of the VPS plan and is added to the monthly statement. With Vultr’s transparent billing, we can keep track of consumption and related expenses.
