Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $127.17/mo (7 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Essential DB1-7 is significantly overpriced for a single-node PostgreSQL database. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs (4GB RAM, 2 vCPU) at less than half the cost, with better SLAs and fewer hidden gotchas. The OVHcloud plan's 7GB RAM and 160-480GB storage are not enough to justify the 2-3x premium over alternatives.
Half the price of OVHcloud with 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM; industry-leading 99.999% SLA beats OVHcloud's undisclosed SLA.
Caveat: Storage is only 50GB vs OVHcloud's 160-480GB; backups are a separate add-on (10-60% surcharge); data transfer overages possible despite free-egress marketing.
49% cheaper than OVHcloud with matching 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM; 99.99% SLA and 80GB SSD storage.
Caveat: Price is estimated from linear node pricing, not directly confirmed; outbound bandwidth billed at $0.005/GB after pooled allowance; HA clusters cost 2-3x more.
53% cheaper with 2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, and 80GB disk; 100% network uptime SLA; no Windows license surcharge (MySQL, not Windows-based).
Caveat: MySQL, not PostgreSQL; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; single-node only.
53% cheaper with 2 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 120GB disk, and 100GB free transfer; 99.9% SLA; encrypted by default.
Caveat: Data transfer overage varies by region ($0.09-$0.132/GB); compute-only estimate may not include storage overages.
57% cheaper with 4GB RAM and 1 vCPU; 99.95% SLA; includes automatic backups and connection pooling.
Caveat: Only 1 vCPU vs OVHcloud's 2; persistent disk storage billed separately at $0.25/GB/month; bandwidth overages at ~$0.15/GB; instances billed by the second.
