Managed Database for PostgreSQL and MySQL · $123/mo (8 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 20 GB SSD)
Scaleway's DB-PRO2-XXS (HA) at $123/mo is significantly more expensive than comparable managed database options with similar or better specs. Multiple providers offer 4GB RAM / 2 vCPU tiers at $37-$68/mo, though most lack the High Availability standby replica that Scaleway includes. If HA is non-negotiable, costs rise, but you're still paying a substantial premium for Scaleway's offering.
Matches Scaleway's 2 vCPU / 4GB RAM core specs at less than 56% of the price, with industry-leading 99.999% SLA and transparent per-GB backup surcharges.
Caveat: Single-node only (no HA standby); backup add-ons (10-60% surcharge) and potential data-transfer overages can increase total cost.
2 vCPU / 4GB RAM PostgreSQL at half Scaleway's price with 99.99% SLA and 80-240GB usable storage included.
Caveat: Single-node (no HA); storage overage at $0.0004/GB/hr; APAC regions lose free egress after mid-2026; IPv4 billed separately.
2 vCPU / 4GB RAM with 80GB SSD at 47% savings and 99.99% SLA; HA clusters available at roughly 2-3x price if needed.
Caveat: Standalone tier lacks HA; backup add-on ~20-25% surcharge; outbound bandwidth overages at $0.005-$0.015/GB.
2 vCPU / 4GB RAM with 120GB disk and 100GB monthly transfer at half Scaleway's price; 99.9% SLA and data encryption included.
Caveat: Single-node (no HA); data-transfer overage $0.09-$0.132/GB varies by region; no standby replica.
2 vCPU / 4GB RAM with 80GB disk at 51% savings and 100% network uptime SLA.
Caveat: Single-node (no HA); bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; no standby replica.
