Managed Database - MySQL · $3936.74/mo (60 GB RAM, 16 vCPU)
The OVHcloud Enterprise DB1-60 is significantly oversized and overpriced for most workloads at $3936.74/mo. Multiple providers offer 32GB RAM / 8 vCPU managed databases for $397-$490/mo with comparable or better reliability and lower hidden-cost exposure. If you genuinely need 60GB RAM and 16 vCPU, OVHcloud's per-node hourly billing ($1.7976/hr x3) may be competitive, but most users should right-size to a smaller tier.
Cheapest option by far at less than 10% of OVHcloud's price, with 32GB RAM and 8 vCPU, 99.99% SLA, and transparent bandwidth overage pricing.
Caveat: PostgreSQL, not MySQL; half the RAM and vCPU of the OVHcloud plan, so only viable if you can right-size your workload.

MySQL match with 32GB RAM / 8 vCPU at $480/mo, 100% network uptime SLA, and straightforward bandwidth overage model.
Caveat: Windows license costs not included in base price; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; still only 1/8th the OVHcloud specs.
32GB RAM / 8 vCPU at $490/mo with 960GB disk, 400GB included transfer, and data encryption; 99.9% SLA.
Caveat: Data transfer overage is steep ($0.09-$0.132/GB depending on region); regional pricing variation can add hidden costs.
32GB RAM / 8 vCPU at $480/mo with 640GB SSD, 99.99% SLA, and transparent per-GB bandwidth overage ($0.005-$0.015/GB).
Caveat: Pricing is ESTIMATED from linear node patterns, not directly confirmed; HA (3-node) clusters cost 2-3x more; backups are a separate add-on (20-25% of instance price).
If you need 64GB RAM and HA, Fly.io at $1922/mo includes backups and connection pooling, cutting OVHcloud's cost roughly in half.
Caveat: PostgreSQL, not MySQL; storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; regional pricing premiums apply; no published platform SLA; machine prices vary significantly by region.
