Managed Database - MongoDB · $1058.21/mo (30 GB RAM, 8 vCPU)
OVHcloud's MongoDB Production DB2-30 at $1058/mo is significantly overpriced for managed database workloads. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs (16GB RAM, 4-6 vCPU, 50GB-480GB storage) at 15-23% of OVHcloud's cost, with transparent pricing and better SLAs.
PostgreSQL/MySQL at 16GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 50GB SSD for $158/mo - 85% cheaper than OVHcloud with transparent egress pricing (75GB free, then EUR 0.01/GB).
Caveat: Database engine is PostgreSQL or MySQL, not MongoDB; verify MongoDB compatibility requirements before switching.
| 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 |
16GB RAM, 4 vCPU at $197/mo with 99.99% SLA and straightforward bandwidth overage pricing ($0.01/GB past pooled allowance).
Caveat: OpenSearch is a search/analytics engine, not a general-purpose database; confirm workload fit before migrating.
16GB RAM, 6 vCPU (more cores than OVHcloud), 320GB disk at $240/mo with 100% network uptime SLA and no per-node surcharges.
Caveat: MySQL only, not MongoDB; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center location.
16GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 480GB disk, 300GB monthly transfer included at $245/mo with data encryption standard.
Caveat: Data transfer overages are steep ($0.09-$0.132/GB depending on region); verify your egress needs against the 300GB allowance.
32GB RAM, 4 vCPU with HA, backups, and connection pooling included at $962/mo - closest spec match and only 9% cheaper, but includes enterprise features OVHcloud charges separately.
Caveat: Postgres only, not MongoDB; storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; regional pricing varies and cross-region networking has steep per-GB fees; no published platform SLA.
