Managed Databases · $26880/mo (256 GB RAM, 96 vCPU, 1280 GB)
Vultr's $26,880/mo plan is significantly overpriced for managed PostgreSQL. OVHcloud's PostgreSQL Discovery-B3-256 at $5,406/mo delivers identical RAM and storage at 80% lower cost, though with fewer vCPUs (64 vs 96). Even accounting for replication and hidden costs, you're paying a substantial premium for Vultr's configuration.
Matches your 256GB RAM and storage capacity at one-fifth the price; 99.99% SLA matches Vultr's reliability.
Caveat: 64 vCPU vs your 96 vCPU; single node vs 2-replica setup means you lose built-in replication and must add HA separately.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Linode (Akamai) | Managed Databases · Dedicated G7 128 GB - Standalone | $2620/mo | 128 GB RAM, 50 vCPU, 2560 GB NVMe | Visit |
| Heroku | Heroku Postgres · Standard-7 | $3500/mo | 244 GB RAM, 2048 GB | Visit |
| OVHcloud | Analytics - ClickHouse · Discovery-B3-256 | $4546/mo |
Same hardware and pricing as PostgreSQL tier; if your workload is database-agnostic, MySQL is an option.
Caveat: Requires database migration from PostgreSQL; same single-node limitation as PostgreSQL alternative.
Lowest absolute price at $3,500/mo with 244GB RAM and managed HA; fully managed with no replica configuration needed.
Caveat: Only 244GB RAM vs your 256GB; vCPU count not published; Standard tier SLA not separately disclosed; add-on overages can force unplanned upgrades.
