In which use cases does Snowflake apply egress charges?

 Snowflake applies egress charges in the case of database replication when data is transferred out of a Snowflake region to another region or cloud provider. This is because the data transfer incurs costs associated with moving data across different networks. Egress charges are not applied for data sharing within the same region, query result retrieval, or loading data into Snowflake, as these actions do not involve data transfer across regions.
