Is OVHcloud's Discovery-B3-128 the best deal?

Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $2703.19/mo (128 GB RAM, 32 vCPU)

Better deals exist

OVHcloud's Discovery-B3-128 is significantly overpriced for a single-node PostgreSQL database. DigitalOcean, Linode, and Vultr all offer comparable or better specs at 29-65% lower cost, with transparent pricing and no major hidden gotchas. Heroku options are either undersized or vastly more expensive and should be disregarded.

Managed Databases PostgreSQL Basic Premium AMD 64GB

$782.2/mosave 71%

Half the RAM but identical vCPU count, 71% cheaper, 99.99% SLA, and straightforward bandwidth overage pricing with no regional egress cliffs.

Caveat: 64GB RAM vs 128GB; verify if your workload fits within 64GB before migrating.

Managed Databases Shared 64 GB - Standalone

$950/mosave 65%

Same 64GB/16vCPU as DigitalOcean but with 1280GB SSD storage, 65% cheaper, 99.99% SLA, and predictable bandwidth overage rates.

Caveat: Price is estimated from linear node pricing and not directly confirmed; verify exact tier availability and confirm backup costs are acceptable.

Managed Databases MySQL CC-Reg 16vCPU/64GB

$960/mosave 64%

64GB RAM, 16 vCPU, 1280GB disk at 64% savings; 100% network uptime SLA and location-aware bandwidth pricing.

Caveat: This is MySQL, not PostgreSQL; you will need to migrate your database engine and test application compatibility.

Before you switch

OVHcloud's APAC egress loses free status after mid-2026; factor in future bandwidth costs if you are in that region.
DigitalOcean and Vultr specs are half the RAM; load-test your workload at 64GB before committing.
Linode's price is estimated and not directly confirmed; contact sales to lock in the exact tier and renewal rate.
All three alternatives (DO, Linode, Vultr) have bandwidth overage charges; monitor usage and set alerts to avoid surprise bills.
Verify OVHcloud's IPv4 address billing and any other per-instance fees that may not be reflected in the $2703.19 headline price.
