Managed Database - MySQL · $1966.4/mo (30 GB RAM, 8 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Enterprise DB1-30 at $1966.40/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs offered. Multiple providers deliver comparable or superior managed database performance at 8-12% of the cost, with better transparency and fewer hidden gotchas around egress billing and regional surcharges.
16GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 50GB SSD at $158/mo delivers database capability at 1/12th the OVHcloud price with transparent egress pricing (75GB free, then EUR 0.01/GB).
Caveat: Smaller storage footprint (50GB vs 640GB-1.92TB) and single-node; suitable only if your workload fits the smaller disk.
