Managed Database - MongoDB · $267.62/mo (7 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
OVHcloud's MongoDB plan is significantly more expensive than comparable managed database offerings from other providers. Multiple alternatives offer similar or better specs (4GB RAM, 2 vCPU) at 70-80% lower cost, though you'll trade MongoDB for PostgreSQL/MySQL and may lose the 3-node HA setup depending on your choice.
Cheapest option with 4GB RAM and 2 vCPU; includes 99.99% SLA and straightforward bandwidth overage pricing with no surprise region-based cliffs.
Caveat: OpenSearch is a search/analytics engine, not a general-purpose database like MongoDB; verify your workload fits before migrating.
PostgreSQL alternative with 4GB RAM, 64GB disk, and higher reliability than Essential tier; Standard tier SLA not published but historically stronger than Essential's 99.5%.
Caveat: Switching from MongoDB to PostgreSQL requires schema redesign; add-on overages can force unplanned tier upgrades; Advanced tier pricing requires sales contact.
PostgreSQL with 4GB RAM at 79% savings; 99.95% SLA and per-second billing means you pay only for uptime.
Caveat: Only 1 vCPU vs OVHcloud's 2; storage and bandwidth overages billed separately at $0.25-0.30/GB; no HA included in this tier.
MySQL with matching 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM specs; 100% network uptime SLA and 80GB disk (vs OVHcloud's 40-500GB range).
Caveat: MySQL instead of MongoDB; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows license surcharge applies if needed.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 120GB disk with 100GB free transfer; 99.9% SLA and data encryption included.
Caveat: Data transfer overage rates vary by region ($0.09-0.132/GB); switching from MongoDB to MySQL/PostgreSQL required; no 3-node HA in this tier.
