Load Balancer · $168.19/mo (4000 GB transfer)
OVHcloud Load Balancer XL is reasonably priced for its capacity tier, but several competitors offer lower entry costs for smaller workloads. However, direct feature-for-feature comparison is difficult because most alternatives target different use cases (CDN, DNS, certificates) rather than pure load balancing with 4 Gbps throughput and 80k req/s.
Entry-level load balancer at 1/22nd the price, suitable for smaller deployments with up to 10k connections and TLS termination included.
Caveat: Dramatically lower capacity (10k vs 2k connections/s, no stated req/s limit); recent 36-39% price increase in April 2026 and VAT excluded from listed price; not comparable for high-throughput scenarios.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fly.io | Private Networking / Egress · North America / Europe - private cross-region | $0.01/mo | WireGuard (6PN) private cross-region transfer, per GB, North America and Europe. Within-region private transfer is free. | Visit |
| Bunny CDN | CDN · Europe & North America | $0.01/mo | Standard Network CDN, per-GB pay-as-you-go rate for Europe & North America. | Visit |
| Oracle Cloud Infrastructure | Outbound Data Transfer · Prior policy: overage to internet |
Regional load balancer at 1/16th the cost with 100% network uptime SLA and no stated capacity ceiling in the listing.
Caveat: Specs do not detail throughput or connection limits; bandwidth overage rates vary by location and are not transparent; Windows licensing not included.
Regional load balancer with 10k req/s per node, 10k connections, 250 SSL/s; scales horizontally by adding nodes at $12/mo each.
Caveat: Base tier supports only 10k req/s vs OVHcloud's 80k; reaching parity would require 8 nodes ($96/mo); bandwidth overages at $0.01/GB; 99.99% SLA is strong but OVHcloud's SLA not stated.
Flat-rate load balancer with 99.99% SLA and transparent $0.015/GB overage billing for NodeBalancer traffic.
Caveat: Capacity specs not detailed; outbound bandwidth billed separately at $0.015/GB after pooled allowance; no stated throughput or connection limits to confirm equivalence.
