Vultr?
Vultr, or Digital Ocean?
Tbh.: On a quick look the price ration didn't seem to be better than at Scaleway.
In their NJ location you used to be able to setup free block storage. Might be worth it for your use if that's still the case.
Cheapest hourly I've found is iwStack; you always pay a premium for hourly vs full month. You could also look at Lunanode, great service.
We do hourly in London. What specs are you looking at? We can try something
+1 for LunaNode, service has been very good so far, a bit more expensive than Scaleway but better. And cheaper than all other alternatives I have found.
The bigger Scaleways come with more disk space, and you can also add it at $1 per 50GB which is crazy cheap for SSD, even that weird network SSD that they use.
Another +1 for Lunanode - their resizable block storage volumes at $0.03 per GB per month (with hourly billing) have been good gravy for my storage turkey - nice to have in the mix even if a little rich for a main course
LunaNode, CA + FR locations
Take a look at mnx.io storage instances too:
https://mnx.io/pricing/
Gandi.net Cloud, not the cheapest on the market but very good. Xen, IPv6-only if you're Mr Cheapo...
You do know that scaleway allows you to add more volumes to your server right? At about 1usd per 50gb/month.
Not on the small instances anymore.
It's insanely expensive.
OVH public cloud. You can add additional disks to all flavors.
But the 4gb ram instance comes with 100gb of ssd and is still ridiculously cheap at 0.012 euro/hour (6 euro/month). What is the application if I can ask?
OVH public cloud sounds good but is quite expensive. I haven't tried yet. Everything I could see doing on it is much cheaper on a budget dedi.
Thanks a lot for all this feedback!
Did I understand it correctly, that only the smallest VPS at Scaleway has a fixed storage and all the others I can add more?
To be honest, I would rather stick with Scaleway than change to another provider. The connection to my ISP is awesome and I get way more network speed on my VPS than the promised 200Mbit (I have like 60MB down/upload).
To my knowledge you can only add additional storage to the BareMetal SSD Cloud Servers. But its better to ask Scaleway!
Alibabacloud.com or if you are in Germany via Vodafone, with free 24x7 german tech-support and german bill, but same price: vodafone.de/alibaba
One hint: ECS Pay-As-You-Go=VPC on hourly base -> they have cheap starter plans
What? Me worry?
You can add storage to any product in Scaleway.
