Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $249.22/mo (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Enterprise DB1-4 is a premium 3-node HA offering at $249.22/mo, but most visitors comparing managed PostgreSQL will find dramatically cheaper single-node alternatives that meet typical workloads. The real question is whether you need 3-node redundancy and 4GB RAM; if not, you can save 80-95% with entry-level tiers elsewhere.
Matches OVHcloud's 4GB RAM and 2 vCPU at one-quarter the price, with 99.99% SLA and 80GB SSD storage.
Caveat: Single-node only (no HA); HA upgrade to 3-node costs 2-3x more; outbound bandwidth overages at $0.005/GB after pooled allowance; backups are a separate add-on (~$13-16/mo).

4GB RAM and 64GB disk at $50/mo with published 99.5% SLA (or higher on Standard tier, not separately published).
Caveat: Essential tier has only 99.5% uptime and no HA/fork/follow; Standard tier SLA not explicitly stated; add-on overages can force unplanned tier upgrades; requires established payment history for higher tiers.
4GB RAM at $55/mo with 99.95% SLA, includes HA and automatic backups.
Caveat: Persistent disk storage billed separately at $0.25/GB/month; bandwidth overage at ~$0.15/GB; storage overage at ~$0.30/GB/month; billed by the second, so partial-month charges apply.
2GB RAM with HA, backups, and connection pooling included at $72/mo; no SLA cliff like Heroku Essential.
Caveat: Storage billed separately at $0.28/GB/month; extra RAM at ~$5/GB/month; stopped machines still incur $0.15/GB rootfs charge; cross-region traffic up to $0.12/GB; regional pricing varies.
Nearly identical monthly cost but serverless auto-scaling and Oracle's managed infrastructure may suit enterprise workloads better.
Caveat: Only 1 ECPU (0.5 OCPU-equivalent) vs OVHcloud's 2 vCPU; storage billed separately at $0.0257/GB/month; block volume performance billed separately; 99.95% SLA vs OVHcloud's implicit enterprise SLA.
