Analytics - OpenSearch · $295.5/mo (16 GB RAM, 4 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Discovery-B3-16 at $295.50/mo is significantly overpriced for a single-node OpenSearch cluster. Multiple managed database providers offer comparable or superior specs at 25-75% lower cost, though most use PostgreSQL/MySQL rather than OpenSearch. If OpenSearch is a hard requirement, DigitalOcean's managed OpenSearch is the only direct alternative and costs 74% less.
Only direct OpenSearch competitor; 74% cheaper despite half the RAM, includes 99.99% SLA and straightforward bandwidth overage model.
Caveat: 8GB RAM vs OVHcloud's 16GB; bandwidth overages at $0.01/GB may add cost if traffic-heavy.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean | Managed Databases · OpenSearch Basic 8GB | $76.25/mo | 8 GB RAM, 4 vCPU | Visit |
| Scaleway | Managed Database for PostgreSQL and MySQL · DB-PRO2-XXS (non-HA) | $80/mo | 8 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 20 GB SSD | Visit |
| Microsoft Azure | Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server · General Purpose D2s |
Matches OVHcloud's 4 vCPU and adds 160GB disk; 60% cheaper with 100% network uptime SLA and no region-based egress cliffs.
Caveat: MySQL instead of OpenSearch; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows licensing not included if needed.
4 vCPU, 160GB SSD, 99.99% SLA, and $0.005/GB overage rate; 56% cheaper with no region-based egress penalties.
Caveat: Price is estimated from linear pricing pattern, not directly confirmed; PostgreSQL/MySQL only; HA clusters cost 2-3x more.
Includes 200GB transfer allowance, 240GB disk, and data encryption; 61% cheaper with 99.9% SLA.
Caveat: 2 vCPU vs OVHcloud's 4; data transfer overage $0.09-$0.132/GB depending on region; no OpenSearch option.
Includes HA, backups, and connection pooling; only 4.6% cheaper than OVHcloud with comparable feature depth.
Caveat: 2 vCPU vs OVHcloud's 4; storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; stopped machines still incur storage charges; no published platform SLA.
