Cost calculator

Your traffic

Choose a workload. We’ll estimate traffic and requests for you.

Estimated monthly costs

USD per month, before tax. Load balancing and unpriced extras are excluded.

What’s included?

Estimates cover cacheable content. Origin and optional services are added only when you enter their rates. Plans differ in features and coverage; check their terms before buying.

Advanced settings
Split traffic between regions

Percentages must total 100%. The same split applies to bytes and requests. CloudFront charges by serving edge location; this is an approximation. Shared free allowances are allocated proportionally.

Origin and optional services

Paid tiers start with this workload; estimates do not include other account traffic. Enter your own effective rates after origin allowances. Reads use request misses; egress uses byte fill. Functions assume one invocation per viewer request. Zero leaves an extra out of the estimate; it does not mean your origin is free.

Compare a quote you received

This is your quote, not a published provider price. Use an effective rate for the selected traffic mix; tiers, included usage and commitments need to be reflected in your inputs. Sharing a scenario includes your quote details.

Presets are starting assumptions, not measured traffic. Video assumes one rendition and segment GETs; playlists, retries and extra audio tracks add requests. Fill is a byte ratio, not a request cache-hit rate. GB = 1 billion bytes; Google bills GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes; CloudFront estimates use binary GB as a billing assumption.

Overview

Singtel provides telecommunications and digital infrastructure. Its Digital InfraCo unit combines connectivity, data centers and orchestration rather than a single uniform CDN product.

  • Paragon coordinates network, edge and cloud workloads.
  • Nxera provides data-center infrastructure.
  • Submarine and satellite services provide connectivity.

Ask which product or partner supplies caching and security, and who supports the delivery contract. Singtel announced an Akamai alliance in October 2016. Ask the service team about the current delivery offer.

Singapore Telecommunications Limited was incorporated in 1992, with predecessor heritage dating to 1879. It is headquartered in Singapore and listed on SGX as Z74. Those corporate dates are not the launch date of a CDN.

Network

Delivery coverage

Ask for cache locations and delivery measurements for the selected service. Telecom interconnection points, submarine connectivity and Nxera data centers are not interchangeable with HTTP cache nodes.

Workload placement

Paragon coordinates edge and cloud infrastructure. Available locations, residency and network quality depend on the chosen deployment. Ask the selected delivery supplier for its current serving locations.

Paragon

Paragon offers network slicing, edge-application deployment and cloud orchestration. Its API library supports platform integration. For CDN configuration, ask for the API of the actual delivery service.

Content delivery

Confirm protocol support, purge timing, raw-log access and security options for the actual delivery service. Ask how quickly purges complete and which raw-log export options are available. A feature offered elsewhere in the group may not be included in your account.

Pricing

Request current rates for the delivery service your project will use. Request a product-specific quote and use the calculator with those USD delivery rates.

  • Separate transfer, requests and minimum commitment.
  • Add orchestration, compute, connectivity and security charges separately.
  • Confirm regions, currency, support and contract length.

Paragon’s usage-based positioning alone does not provide enough units or rates for an automatic CDN estimate.

Developer tools

Use Paragon integration facilities for orchestration projects. Obtain the relevant technical documentation, credentials, API limits and deployment regions from the service team.

For a CDN contract, ask separately for cache configuration, log export and purge APIs. Ask which CDN APIs, SDKs and Terraform resources your delivery service supports. The Digital InfraCo overview is a product description rather than technical documentation.

When it fits

  • Enterprises combining regional connectivity with edge/cloud workloads.
  • Teams evaluating Paragon orchestration alongside a specified content-delivery service.
  • Buyers able to obtain and compare an enterprise contract with clear product boundaries.

Before you choose

Identify the actual CDN product or partner before comparing coverage and cost. Ask the service team for its delivery quote, APIs, security options and media capabilities; telecom and data-center services are different purchases.
