Analytics - OpenSearch · $1861.94/mo (32 GB RAM, 8 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Production B3-32 is significantly overpriced for a managed OpenSearch cluster. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior managed database/search solutions at 10-90% of the cost, with better SLAs and fewer hidden gotchas. The OVHcloud plan's per-node hourly billing and regional egress penalties make it a poor value proposition.
Direct OpenSearch competitor at 1/9th the price with 99.99% SLA, no regional egress penalties, and transparent bandwidth overages.
Caveat: Half the RAM and storage of OVHcloud; suitable only if your workload fits 16GB, otherwise upgrade path exists.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scaleway | Managed Database for PostgreSQL and MySQL · DB-PRO2-XS | $158/mo | 16 GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 50 GB SSD | Visit |
| DigitalOcean | Managed Databases · OpenSearch General Purpose 16GB | $197.35/mo | 16 GB RAM, 4 vCPU | Visit |
| Vultr | Managed Databases · MySQL CC-Reg 6vCPU/16GB (0 rep) | $240/mo |
Matches OVHcloud's 32GB RAM and includes HA, backups, and connection pooling out-of-box; half the monthly cost despite similar specs.
Caveat: PostgreSQL, not OpenSearch; storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; regional pricing varies and cross-region traffic is expensive; no published platform SLA.
Cheapest option at 1/12th OVHcloud's price; 99.9-99.99% SLA and transparent egress fees (75GB free, then EUR 0.01/GB).
Caveat: PostgreSQL not OpenSearch; 16GB RAM and 50GB SSD are significantly smaller; not a direct feature match.
Managed database at 1/7th the cost with 480GB disk, 300GB monthly transfer included, and data encryption standard.
Caveat: 16GB RAM only; data transfer overages are steep at $0.09-$0.132/GB depending on region; 99.9% SLA is lower than competitors.
Managed database at 1/7.7th the cost with 6 vCPU, 16GB RAM, and 320GB disk; 100% network uptime SLA.
Caveat: MySQL not OpenSearch; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows licensing not included if needed.
