Managed Databases · $1860/mo (64 GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 1920 GB)
Vultr's PostgreSQL SO plan at $1860/mo is significantly overpriced compared to direct PostgreSQL alternatives. OVHcloud's PostgreSQL Discovery-B3-32 at $675.83/mo offers nearly identical specs (8 vCPU, 32GB RAM, 640GB-3.2TB storage) at 64% lower cost. Even accounting for hidden costs and the Vultr plan's larger 64GB RAM and 1920GB disk, the value gap is substantial.
Direct PostgreSQL match with 8 vCPU, 32GB RAM, and 640GB-3.2TB storage at less than one-third Vultr's price with 99.99% SLA.
Caveat: Storage is half Vultr's 1920GB; IPv4 addresses billed separately; APAC regions lose free egress after mid-2026.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean | Managed Databases · OpenSearch Memory Optimized 32GB | $282.35/mo | 32 GB RAM, 4 vCPU | Visit |
| Linode (Akamai) | Managed Databases · Shared 32 GB - Standalone | $480/mo | 32 GB RAM, 8 vCPU, 640 GB SSD | Visit |
| AWS Lightsail | Managed Databases · 32GB Standard | $490/mo |
Identical pricing and specs to PostgreSQL tier; if MySQL is acceptable, same 64% savings apply.
Caveat: MySQL instead of PostgreSQL; storage capped at 3.2TB vs Vultr's 1920GB; separate IPv4 charges.
Managed PostgreSQL with HA, backups, and connection pooling included; 48% cheaper than Vultr with enterprise-grade reliability.
Caveat: Only 4 vCPU and 32GB RAM (half Vultr's CPU); storage billed separately at $0.28/GB; no published platform SLA; regional pricing varies.
Managed PostgreSQL with 61GB RAM and 1TB storage; 25% cheaper than Vultr with higher connection limits (500 max).
Caveat: Lower SLA (99.5% vs Vultr's implied higher tier); add-on overages can force unplanned upgrades; Advanced tier pricing not published.
