CDN · $10/mo
Vultr's CDN at $10/mo is fairly priced for a flat-rate CDN with usage-based bandwidth, but it faces stiff competition from AWS Lightsail's $2.50/mo first-year-free offer and Oracle Cloud's $0.01/mo legacy overage tier if you have minimal overages. The real decision hinges on your bandwidth volume and whether you need true CDN features versus basic egress.
First year completely free, then $2.50/mo with 50 GB included; massive savings if you're in year one or have light CDN needs.
Caveat: Overage rates vary by region ($0.09-$0.132/GB) and can exceed Vultr quickly on heavy usage; year-two pricing kicks in after promotional period.
Legacy pricing at $0.01/mo with 10 TB free allowance before overage; unbeatable if you stay under the free tier.
Caveat: This is a legacy 'prior policy' rate that Oracle is sunsetting in 2026 to free egress; not a long-term guarantee and may not apply to new accounts.
Matches Vultr's $10/mo flat rate with load-balancing features; good parity if you need both CDN and load-balancing in one product.
Caveat: NodeBalancer is a load balancer, not a CDN; bandwidth overages at $0.015/GB once pooled allowance is exceeded, which may be higher than Vultr depending on your data center.
