Hello, Do you know of any websites that compare the prices and features of "cloud service providers", in particular VPS (Virtual machine) offers? So far, I've found this : - https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/ - https://vpscomp.com/ (found [here](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9241159)) - https://www.serverhunter.com/ (found [here](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20537209)) - https://en.metadedi.net/ (found [here](https://en.metadedi.net/)) - https://cloudoptimizer.io/ (found [here](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26846163)) - https://github.com/baaastijn/ovh_pricelist (OpenSource, limited to OVH) - [Awesome list of Cloud VPS with price breakdown](https://github.com/leogallego/awesome-vps-price-breakdown) (last price update : 2021) - [A price list of curated VPS hosting providers](https://github.com/boywithkeyboard/vps-hosters) (last price update : 2022) - https://github.com/joedicastro/vps-comparison (last updated : 2017) ## Comment about [vpsbenchmarks.com](https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/) [vpsbenchmarks.com](https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/) s what I'm looking for, but I find it incomplete. For instance: - For Scaleway, [I count 4 plans](https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/instance_types/scaleway) on vpsbenchmarks, whereas I count 45 plans on [Scaleway's official website](https://www.scaleway.com/en/pricing/?tags=compute) - For DigitalOcean, [I count 8 plans](https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/hosters/digitalocean) whereas I count 32 plans on [DigitalOcean's official website](https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/droplets) - For Hetzner, [I count 9 plans](https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/hosters/hetzner) whereas I count 22 plans on [Hetzner' official website](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud) I may not have searched properly, but I haven't found a page that lets you compare VPS offers with identical features (Shared vCPU, Dedicated vCPU...), between two cloud providers. ## Comment about [vpscomp.com](https://vpscomp.com/) I didn't find Hetzner, OVH... on [vpscomp.com](https://vpscomp.com/). ## Comment about [serverhunter.com](https://www.serverhunter.com) [serverhunter.com](https://www.serverhunter.com) is my favorite service. Problem: I only see the integration of [OVH dedicated servers]((https://www.serverhunter.com/company/ovh/)). I couldn't find [OVH VPS](https://us.ovhcloud.com/public-cloud/compute/). ## Comment about [metadedi.net](https://en.metadedi.net/) I understand that [metadedi.net](https://en.metadedi.net/) is limited to dedicated servers and I'm not sure about the update dates. Also, [the GitLab project](https://gitlab.com/Ne00n/metaDedi-Filters) indicated on the [about page](https://en.metadedi.net/index.php?p=about) no longer exists. ## Comment about [cloudoptimizer.io](https://cloudoptimizer.io/) For example, OVH and Scaleway are missing. ## Where do I do my research? I searched for this type of service on : - Google - I found this on Hackernews : - [Ask HN: What are good hosting providers?](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20537209) - [Show HN: Server Hunter – Easily browse over 11,000 VPS and Dedicated Servers](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19140834) - [Show HN: Easy cloud instance comparison (AWS, GCP, Azure, IBM, Alibaba and more)](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26846163) - [reddit seflhosted](https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/) - [Lemmy Selfhosted](https://lemmy.world/c/selfhosted) - [GitHub](https://github.com/search?q=VPS+price&type=issues) - https://github.com/dalisoft/awesome-hosting ## My VPS comparaison service of dream - OpenSource - With an API - OpenData available (downloadable in csv, yaml or json format) - When available, price fetch from cloud providers' pricing APIs, otherwise via web scraping - Price history view - View to compare VPS benchmark results, for example, based on https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script ## Question Do you know of a service that looks like this? If not, do you think it should exist? Best regards, Stéphane
