Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $1310.93/mo (30 GB RAM, 8 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Business DB1-30 is significantly overpriced for managed PostgreSQL. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs at 12-20% of the cost, with better transparency and no region-based egress cliffs. The $1,310.93/mo price point is difficult to justify given the hidden costs and upcoming APAC traffic billing changes.
Lowest-cost managed PostgreSQL with 16GB RAM and 4 vCPU; transparent egress pricing (75GB free, then EUR 0.01/GB) and no region-based billing cliffs.
Caveat: Half the RAM and vCPU of OVHcloud, and only 50GB SSD storage vs 640GB-1.92TB; suitable for smaller workloads only.
| 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 |
Strong 99.99% SLA, 16GB RAM, 4 vCPU at 15% of OVHcloud's price with predictable bandwidth overage fees ($0.01/GB).
Caveat: Product is OpenSearch, not PostgreSQL; verify compatibility with your workload before switching.
6 vCPU and 16GB RAM at 18% of OVHcloud's cost; 100% network uptime SLA and 320GB disk with no region-based egress penalties.
Caveat: MySQL, not PostgreSQL; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center location and are not pre-published.
16GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 480GB disk, 300GB monthly transfer included at 19% of OVHcloud's cost; data encryption standard.
Caveat: Data transfer overage is expensive ($0.09-$0.132/GB depending on region); regional pricing variation requires verification.
True PostgreSQL with 32GB RAM, 4 vCPU, HA, backups, and connection pooling included; 27% cheaper than OVHcloud with no region-based egress cliffs.
Caveat: Storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; extra RAM beyond preset allocation costs ~$5/GB/month; no published platform SLA; regional pricing premiums apply outside Amsterdam.
