Public Cloud Compute Instances · $1410.36/mo (256 GB RAM, 64 vCPU, 400 GB NVMe)
OVHcloud's b3-256 at $1410/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs. Multiple dedicated server and cloud providers offer 128GB RAM / 32 vCPU configurations at $199-$532/mo, and even 256GB RAM options exist at $350/mo. The OVHcloud instance lacks storage density (400GB NVMe) compared to cheaper alternatives with 600GB-3840GB, and hidden costs (IPv4 billing, Windows license surcharge, APAC egress changes) add friction.
Dedicated server with 128GB RAM, 48 vCPU, and 3840GB NVMe for $199/mo - nearly 7x cheaper than OVHcloud with more cores and 10x the storage.
Caveat: Setup fee rising to 159 EUR in 2026; traffic overage billed beyond 20TB EU pool; VAT excluded from listed price; AX162-R/S variants cost ~242 EUR/mo.

Matches OVHcloud's 256GB RAM spec exactly at $350/mo (vs $1410), with 32 vCPU and flexible shape for workload scaling.
Caveat: Block Volume performance (VPU) billed separately; Archive Storage has 90-day minimum retention and early-deletion penalties; Object Storage Infrequent Access carries per-GB retrieval fees.
128GB RAM, 32 vCPU, 3000GB NVMe SSD with unmetered bandwidth and 3 IPs at $312/mo; 20% discount available on 36-month term.
Caveat: Steep renewal price increases after intro term (2-4x); free domain and privacy only year 1; SiteLock/backup upsells during checkout; requires longer contract for lowest price.
32 vCPU, 128GB RAM, 2048GB NVMe with unlimited traffic and 10 Gbit/s port at EUR 399/mo; strong value for sustained workloads.
Caveat: Quoted price is effective rate for 24-month prepaid term; shorter terms cost more per month; fair usage policy may throttle sustained high-bandwidth usage; ticket-only support on base tier.
32 vCPU, 128GB RAM, 3.2TB SSD RAID-10, 10TB bandwidth, and 100% uptime SLA at $532/mo with fully managed support.
Caveat: Advertised price is promotional (50% off first 2 months typical); renewal pricing is significantly higher; bandwidth overages and extra storage billed separately.
