Is OVHcloud's Essential DB1-7 the best deal?

Cheapest option by far at $37/mo for 4GB/2vCPU with 99.99% SLA; bandwidth overages are transparent and rare for typical Grafana dashboards.

Caveat: OpenSearch is not Grafana-native (you'd need Grafana + separate time-series DB), so this is only viable if you're replacing the entire stack.

$50/mo for 4GB/4096MB with 64GB disk and higher reliability than Essential tier; Standard tier avoids the 99.5% SLA cliff and includes fork/follow.

Caveat: Add-on overages can force unplanned upgrades; performance dynos require established billing history; Advanced tier pricing requires sales contact.

$55/mo for 4GB RAM with 99.95% SLA and per-second billing means you pay only for what you use; good for variable workloads.

Caveat: Storage and bandwidth overages billed separately at $0.25-0.30/GB; exact overage rates not fully documented.

$60/mo for 4GB/2vCPU with 80GB disk and 100% network uptime SLA; straightforward pricing with no surprise surcharges for Linux.

Caveat: Bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; MySQL instead of PostgreSQL may require schema changes.

$68.61/mo for 4GB/2vCPU with 50GB disk and industry-leading 99.999% SLA; Simple Backups add-on is optional and transparent.

Caveat: Backups add 10-60% surcharge depending on frequency; data transfer beyond Fair Policy allowance may incur overage fees despite free-egress marketing.
