Virtual Instances · $330.25/mo (8 GB RAM, 4 vCPU)
The Scaleway POP2-HN-5 is end-of-life and significantly overpriced at $330.25/mo for 8GB/4vCPU specs. Multiple providers offer matching or superior hardware for $5-13/mo, though most bundle aggressive renewal-price traps and require long-term prepay to hit advertised rates.
Exact spec match (8GB RAM, 4vCPU, 100GB SSD) at 1.8% of Scaleway's price with unlimited traffic and 99.90% SLA.
Caveat: Quoted price requires 24-month prepay; 1-month billing costs significantly more, and fair-usage policy can throttle sustained high-bandwidth usage.
Exceeds specs (8GB RAM, 4vCPU, 160GB NVMe, 5TB transfer) with DDoS protection included at 3% of Scaleway's cost.
Caveat: Price shown is 3-year contract rate; renewal jumps 2-4x higher, and lowest intro rates require 24-36 month upfront commitment.
Matches specs (8GB RAM, 2vCPU, 100GB NVMe) with 8TB transfer and weekly backups at 2.7% of Scaleway's price.
Caveat: Intro rate requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal price is 2-4x higher ($14.99/mo), and monthly billing costs substantially more.
Matches specs (8GB RAM, 2vCPU, 120GB NVMe) with 99.99% SLA and unlimited traffic at 4.1% of Scaleway's cost.
Caveat: Intro pricing is promotional (3-month or 1-year term); renewal pricing is 2-6x higher, and additional IPv4 addresses cost $6/month each.
Exceeds specs (4GB RAM, 4vCPU, 120GB NVMe) with unlimited traffic and 99.99% SLA at 3.3% of Scaleway's cost.
Caveat: Intro pricing is promotional (3-month or 1-year term); renewal pricing is 2-6x higher, and outbound traffic beyond 2TB free pool is tiered at $0.036/GB.
