Managed Database - PostgreSQL · $5406.38/mo (256 GB RAM, 64 vCPU)
OVHcloud's Discovery-B3-256 is significantly overpriced at $5406/mo for a single-node PostgreSQL instance. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs at 48-52% lower cost, with better SLAs and clearer pricing structures. The OVHcloud plan lacks redundancy (1 node) and carries region-specific egress penalties starting mid-2026.
Matches OVHcloud's 256GB RAM at less than half the price, with 100% network uptime SLA and no per-instance IPv4 surcharges.
Caveat: Bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; Windows license cost not included if applicable.

Half the RAM but 50 dedicated vCPU (vs OVHcloud's 64), NVMe storage, and 99.99% SLA at 52% savings; scales well if you need HA later.
Caveat: Price is estimated from linear node pricing and not directly confirmed; HA clusters cost 2-3x more; backups are a separate add-on.
244GB RAM, 2TB disk, 99.5%+ SLA, and managed backups included; 35% cheaper than OVHcloud with no region-based egress cliffs.
Caveat: SLA varies by tier (Essential is only 99.5%); Advanced tier pricing requires sales contact; add-on overages can force unplanned upgrades.
Cheapest option at 66% savings; 128GB RAM, 32 vCPU, 99.99% SLA, and straightforward bandwidth overage pricing.
Caveat: Half the RAM and vCPU of OVHcloud; bandwidth overages at $0.01/GB; best for smaller workloads.
