Just for the sake of enlightening some people. Roughly $1000 per month buys you unlimited/unmetered 10GBe (10GBps) connectivity to your server/rack (do you know what this is?), from a tier-1 network provider.

This translates to roughly 1.2 gigabytes per second (every second of of the month), and 3240 terabytes of data per month - in or out, the choice is yours.

Things scale down as you buy more bandwidth, or commit to a longer contract.

Many would say that $1000 per month is literally "nothing" in terms of costs of service for most real businesses our there, and if you're a happy CSP user, you're probably paying a hell of a lot more than that per month for your infra.
