Hi. My application is going to consume a lot of network traffic (both incoming and outcoming), so I’m looking for a tariff plan with large amount of transfer included. But from the other side, application won’t be CPU- or RAM-consuming, so I don’t really need a powerful droplet. So I wonder if it’s possible to order some additional traffic separately? If not, then I’m curious what will happen upon droplet quota exceeding? Will the droplet refuse any connections or there will be turned on some additional charges (of what amount)?
