Analytics - Managed Dashboards (Grafana) · $107.75/mo (8 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Grafana Production B3-8 at $107.75/mo is significantly overpriced for a single-node analytics dashboard tier. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior managed database/analytics infrastructure at 35-65% lower cost, with better SLAs and more transparent pricing.
Less than one-third the price with 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM, plus 99.99% SLA vs OVHcloud's undisclosed SLA and better bandwidth transparency.
Caveat: OpenSearch is a different product category (search/analytics) than Grafana (dashboarding), so feature parity should be verified for your use case.
Half the price with 4GB RAM and 64GB disk; Standard tier offers better reliability than Essential and avoids the hidden SLA cliff.
Caveat: Postgres is a database, not a dashboarding tool; add-on overages can force unplanned tier upgrades if row/connection limits are exceeded.
49% cheaper with 4GB RAM, 99.95% SLA, and per-second billing means you pay only for what you use if the service scales down.
Caveat: Persistent disk storage, bandwidth overages, and Postgres storage overages are billed separately and can add 10-30% to the base price.
44% savings with 2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 80GB disk, and 100% network uptime SLA; MySQL is widely compatible with analytics tools.
Caveat: Bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows license surcharge applies if you need Windows instances.
44% cheaper with 2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 120GB disk, 100GB free transfer, and 99.9% SLA; AWS ecosystem integration if you use other AWS services.
Caveat: Data transfer overage rates are region-dependent ($0.09-$0.132/GB) and can add up quickly; Windows bundles cost 70-90% more.
