Virtual Instances · $75.48/mo (16 GB RAM, 8 vCPU)
Scaleway's BASIC2-A8C-16G at $75.48/mo is significantly overpriced for a 8vCPU/16GB instance. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior specs at 1/6th to 1/3rd the cost, though most require multi-year contracts to hit advertised rates. The Scaleway plan's main advantage is its 800 Mbps public bandwidth and no long-term lock-in, but the price premium is substantial.
Matches your 16GB RAM and 4vCPU core count (Scaleway lists 8vCPU but specs show 4 cores), includes 200GB NVMe, 16TB transfer, and renews at $28.99/mo after intro term.
Caveat: Intro price requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal is 2.2x higher; weekly (not daily) backups on base plan.
Delivers 8vCPU, 12GB RAM, 240GB SSD, and 6TB transfer unmanaged; closest true 8-core match to Scaleway's spec sheet.
Caveat: Unmanaged by default (add $10-25/mo for management); renewal pricing substantially higher; SLA undefined.
Offers 16GB RAM, 4vCPU, 240GB NVMe, and 99.99% SLA; closest RAM match to Scaleway at one-third the price.
Caveat: Intro pricing; renewal can be 2-6x higher; outbound traffic beyond 2TB is metered at $0.036/GB.
Cheapest option with 8GB RAM, 4vCPU, 75GB NVMe, 1 Gbps bandwidth, daily backups, and 99.99% SLA; no long-term contract required.
Caveat: Only 75GB storage vs Scaleway's implied larger pool; IPv4 addresses billed separately; APAC egress loses free status after mid-2026.
Delivers 8GB RAM, 4vCPU, 80GB SSD, 20TB transfer, and 99.9% SLA with no long-term contract lock-in.
Caveat: VAT excluded from listed price; traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB pool; recent large price increases on other product lines suggest future hikes possible.
