Virtual Instances · $2406.08/mo (512 GB RAM, 64 vCPU)
The Scaleway POP2-HM-64C-512G is end-of-life and significantly overpriced compared to modern alternatives. Multiple providers offer 256GB RAM / 32 vCPU configurations at 60-85% lower cost, though the Scaleway plan does offer double the vCPU and RAM if you genuinely need that scale. For equivalent or better specs at substantially lower prices, consider Oracle Cloud, OVHcloud, or Vultr.
Cheapest option by far at 256GB RAM / 32 vCPU with AMD EPYC 4th gen, 99.95% SLA, and flexible scaling.
Caveat: Block Volume performance (VPU) and storage are billed separately; OKE control plane adds $0.10/hr if Kubernetes is needed.
