Is OVHcloud's Production B3-256 the best deal?

Managed Database - MongoDB · $7958.46/mo (256 GB RAM, 64 vCPU)

Better deals exist

OVHcloud's Production B3-256 MongoDB is significantly overpriced compared to functionally equivalent managed database offerings. Vultr and Linode deliver comparable or superior specs at 67-71% lower cost, with clearer pricing and no region-based egress cliffs.

Managed Databases Valkey Mem-Opt 32vCPU/256GB

$2600/mosave 67.3%

Matches OVHcloud's 256GB RAM and storage tier at one-third the price with 100% network uptime SLA and no region-based egress penalties.

Caveat: Valkey (Redis fork) is not MongoDB; bandwidth overages charged per data center; Windows licensing not included if needed.

Dedicated G7 128 GB - Standalone (HA cluster estimated 2-3x)

$5240/mosave 34.2%

High-performance dedicated vCPU with NVMe storage and 99.99% SLA; HA 3-node cluster estimated at 5.2-7.9k/mo, still cheaper than OVHcloud with transparent pricing.

Caveat: Price is ESTIMATED from linear node scaling, not directly confirmed; backups and HA add-ons are separate; outbound bandwidth charged at 0.005-0.015/GB overage.

Managed Databases PostgreSQL General Purpose 128GB

$1825.4/mosave 77.1%

Lowest absolute cost with 99.99% SLA and transparent bandwidth pooling; PostgreSQL is production-grade and widely adopted.

Caveat: Half the RAM (128GB vs 256GB) and half the vCPU (32 vs 64); different database engine (PostgreSQL, not MongoDB); bandwidth overages at 0.01/GB.

Postgres Standard-7

$3500/mosave 56%

Managed PostgreSQL with 244GB RAM and 2TB storage at less than half OVHcloud's price; includes 500 max connections and no egress cliffs.

Caveat: PostgreSQL, not MongoDB; SLA not separately published for Standard tier; add-on overages can force unplanned tier upgrades; Advanced tier pricing requires sales contact.

Before you switch

OVHcloud's APAC outbound traffic loses free egress after mid-2026; verify your region and traffic patterns before committing.
Vultr and Linode offer different database engines (Valkey/Redis, PostgreSQL) -- confirm MongoDB is not a hard requirement.
Linode's HA 3-node cluster price is estimated at 2-3x single-node; request a firm quote before migration.
All alternatives charge bandwidth overages; model your egress traffic to avoid surprise bills.
OVHcloud's per-node hourly rate ($3.634/hr) suggests potential for cheaper single-node or 2-node tiers if your workload allows; compare those before the 3-node Production B3.
