// explanation

For fixed IP communication between services within the same VPC, a static internal IP address is required. Promoting the existing ephemeral internal IP to static is the recommended and cost-effective practice, as static internal IPs are free when assigned to a running VM. External IPs are for internet-facing communication and incur costs.
