Managed Databases · $560/mo (16 GB RAM, 6 vCPU, 320 GB)
Vultr's PostgreSQL CC-Reg plan is a premium high-performance offering with 6 vCPU and 320GB disk that significantly outspecs most comparable managed database tiers. While cheaper single-node options exist (DigitalOcean, Linode, Scaleway), they offer half the CPU cores and storage; true apples-to-apples comparisons at 16GB RAM and 6 vCPU are sparse and either unconfirmed estimates or specialized non-PostgreSQL products.
PostgreSQL-native, 15GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 320-960GB usable storage at less than half Vultr's price with 99.99% SLA.
Caveat: Only 4 vCPU vs Vultr's 6 vCPU; single-node (no built-in HA); APAC regions lose free egress after mid-2026; IPv4 billed separately.

Matches Vultr's 16GB RAM and 480GB disk, includes 300GB transfer, encrypted, 99.9% SLA at 56% lower cost.
Caveat: Only 4 vCPU vs Vultr's 6 vCPU; data transfer overage rates vary by region ($0.09-$0.132/GB); regional pricing variation not fully transparent.
8GB RAM, 256GB disk, 400 max connections at 64% savings; includes managed backups and connection pooling.
Caveat: Only 8GB RAM and 4 vCPU vs Vultr's 16GB/6 vCPU; SLA not separately published for Standard tier; add-on overages can force unplanned upgrades; Advanced tier pricing requires sales contact.
