Managed Databases · $180/mo (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU)
Vultr's Valkey plan at $180/mo is significantly overpriced for a managed in-memory database. OVHcloud offers the same 4GB RAM / 2 vCPU Valkey tier at $55.77/mo (69% cheaper), and multiple providers deliver comparable or better specs at $30-65/mo. Unless you need Vultr-specific features or data residency, switching will yield substantial savings.
| Provider | Plan | Price | Specs | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scaleway | Managed Database for PostgreSQL and MySQL · DB-DEV-S | $11/mo | 2 GB RAM, 1 vCPU, 10 GB SSD | Visit |
| Microsoft Azure | Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server · Burstable B1ms | $12.41/mo | 2 GB RAM, 1 vCPU | Visit |
| DigitalOcean | Managed Databases · OpenSearch Basic 2GB |
4GB RAM at $55/mo with 99.95% SLA; if you can use PostgreSQL instead of Valkey, this is a strong alternative.
Caveat: Persistent disk storage and bandwidth overages billed separately; exact overage rate not fully documented.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80GB SSD at $65/mo with 99.99% SLA; straightforward pricing and established reliability.
Caveat: Price is estimated from linear pricing pattern, not directly confirmed; HA clusters cost 2-3x more.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80-240GB storage at $64.24/mo with 99.99% SLA and 250 Mbps throughput.
Caveat: Additional storage beyond range billed at $0.0004/GB/hr; APAC egress loses free tier after mid-2026.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80-240GB storage at $64.24/mo with 99.99% SLA; same value as MySQL tier.
Caveat: Single-node deployment; APAC egress loses free tier after mid-2026; IPv4 billed separately.
