Managed Databases · $1965/mo (96 GB RAM, 48 vCPU, 1920 GB NVMe)
The Linode Dedicated G7 96GB plan is priced competitively but carries significant hidden costs (backups 20-25%, HA clusters 2-3x markup, bandwidth overages at $0.005-0.015/GB). DigitalOcean and Heroku offer lower entry prices with better transparency, though each has distinct tradeoffs in reliability, features, and scaling costs.
Lowest sticker price at $1400/mo for 61GB RAM; includes 500 max connections and 1TB storage without per-instance backup surcharges.
Caveat: Standard tier SLA not published separately; Essential tier has only 99.5% uptime and no HA; add-on overages can force unplanned tier upgrades; performance dynos require billing history.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heroku | Heroku Postgres · Standard-5 | $1400/mo | 61 GB RAM, 1024 GB | Visit |
| DigitalOcean | Managed Databases · PostgreSQL General Purpose 128GB | $1825.4/mo | 128 GB RAM, 32 vCPU | Visit |
| Vultr | Managed Databases · MySQL CC-Reg 24vCPU/96GB (0 rep) | $1920/mo |
Only $140 more than Linode but delivers 128GB RAM (33% more) and 32 vCPU with published 99.99% SLA; bandwidth overages at $0.01/GB are lower than Linode's $0.015/GB for pooled services.
Caveat: Fewer vCPU (32 vs 48) may impact CPU-bound workloads; storage specs not explicitly stated.
Matches Linode's 96GB RAM and storage at nearly identical price ($45 less); published 100% network uptime SLA; no per-instance backup markup mentioned.
Caveat: Only 24 vCPU (half of Linode's 48); MySQL only, not PostgreSQL; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows license surcharge applies if needed.
128GB RAM and 32 vCPU with 99.99% SLA and 2.56-12.8TB usable storage; no per-instance backup fees; transparent hourly pricing ($3.703/hr).
Caveat: 37% more expensive than Linode; region-locked to Milan/Paris; APAC outbound traffic loses free-egress after mid-2026; IPv4 addresses billed separately.
