Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $327.04/mo (7 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Business DB1-7 is significantly overpriced compared to managed PostgreSQL offerings from UpCloud, Linode, and Fly.io that deliver comparable or superior specs at 79-86% lower cost. The OVHcloud plan's 2-node setup and larger storage window are its only advantages, but don't justify the 5-6x premium for most workloads.
PostgreSQL-native, 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM at 79% lower cost with 99.999% SLA (vs OVHcloud's implied 99.9%), though storage is capped at 50GB and single-node only.
Caveat: Backups are a separate add-on surcharge (10-60% depending on frequency); data transfer overages possible despite free-egress marketing.
2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 80GB SSD at 80% savings with 99.99% SLA and $0.005/GB bandwidth overage (low-cost egress).
Caveat: Spec is ESTIMATED from pricing pattern, not directly confirmed; HA upgrade to 3-node costs 2-3x more; backups are a separate add-on (~20-25% surcharge).
Includes HA, backups, and connection pooling out-of-box (OVHcloud's 2-node setup implies HA but doesn't explicitly confirm it); 8GB RAM and 2 vCPU with only 14% premium.
Caveat: Storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; regional pricing varies; extra RAM beyond preset is $5/GB/month; no published platform SLA; stopped machines still incur storage charges.
8GB RAM, 2 vCPU, PostgreSQL-native at 76% savings with 99.9-99.99% SLA, though storage is only 20GB and non-HA.
Caveat: No High Availability; object storage egress fees apply (75GB free, then EUR 0.01/GB); HA upgrade pricing not listed.
2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 120GB disk at 82% savings with 99.9% SLA and 100GB free monthly transfer.
Caveat: Data transfer overage varies by region ($0.09-$0.132/GB); storage is smaller than OVHcloud's 160-480GB range; single-node only.
