Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $1242.39/mo (16 GB RAM, 4 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Advanced B3-16 at $1242.39/mo is significantly overpriced for a managed PostgreSQL database. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs at 90%+ lower cost, with better transparency on hidden fees and stronger SLAs.
PostgreSQL-native managed database at 1/15th the price with 8GB RAM and 2vCPU, plus transparent egress pricing (75GB free/month) and no surprise region-based penalties.
Caveat: Non-HA single node vs OVHcloud's 3-node cluster; lower CPU count (2 vs 4); upgrade path to HA tier available if needed.
