How we count
The floor is a single node with at least 1 GB of RAM and a disk included in the price. 53 databases clear it, one per provider at each size, from $15.15/mo, against a typical $69/mo for a 4 GB one. A database with a standby has a list of its own. A price is what one month costs, in the provider's own currency converted to dollars, excluding tax. Disk beyond the included size, backups and transfer are billed on top wherever the provider says so, and the provider's page carries those rates.
