Question 1

What is the cheapest cloud server right now?

Accepted Answer

The cheapest cloud server currently is AWS t3a.nano at $2.26/month. CloudPrice updates pricing every 6 hours from official provider APIs.

Question 2

How often are cloud server prices updated?

Accepted Answer

CloudPrice fetches pricing data every 6 hours directly from official APIs of AWS, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode, Hetzner, OVHcloud, Oracle Cloud, IBM Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Huawei Cloud, and Scaleway.

Question 3

Which cloud provider is the cheapest for a 2 vCPU server?

Accepted Answer

Hetzner and OVHcloud typically offer the cheapest 2 vCPU servers in Europe, often under $5/month. In the US, DigitalOcean and Vultr offer competitive 2 vCPU Droplets/instances starting around $12/month. Use CloudPrice to filter by vCPU count and compare live prices.

Question 4

How do AWS EC2 and DigitalOcean Droplet prices compare?

Accepted Answer

DigitalOcean Droplets are generally cheaper than equivalent AWS EC2 instances, with simpler and more predictable pricing. AWS offers more instance types, regions, and services but at higher cost. A comparable 2 vCPU / 4 GB instance on DigitalOcean starts around $24/month vs $35+ on AWS EC2. Use CloudPrice to compare specific configurations side by side.

Question 5

Is Hetzner cheaper than DigitalOcean?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Hetzner Cloud is typically 40–60% cheaper than DigitalOcean for equivalent specs, especially in Europe. Hetzner uses NVMe storage and offers 20 TB bandwidth included. However, Hetzner has fewer global regions than DigitalOcean.

Question 6

What is the difference between AWS, Azure, and GCP pricing?

Accepted Answer

AWS, Azure, and GCP use network-attached storage and charge separately for storage I/O. Their pricing varies significantly by region and instance family. AWS EC2 generally has the widest selection, Azure VM is competitive for Windows workloads, and GCP Compute Engine often wins on sustained-use discounts. Use CloudPrice to compare their on-demand prices instantly.

Question 7

Which cloud provider has the best ARM servers?

Accepted Answer

AWS Graviton (ARM) instances typically offer the best price-performance ratio among major cloud providers, often 20–40% cheaper than equivalent x86 instances. Oracle Cloud also offers free-tier ARM instances. Use CloudPrice's ARM filter to compare all ARM cloud servers across providers.

Question 8

Can I filter cloud servers by region, RAM, and price?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CloudPrice lets you filter by vCPU count, RAM (GB), price range, storage (GB and type), region, provider, and ARM architecture. You can also sort by price, vCPUs, RAM, or storage. All filters are reflected in the URL so you can bookmark and share your search.
