How we count
This is the raw value ranking: RAM, vCPU, disk and bandwidth per dollar, computed the same way for all 527 tracked plans. It only counts plans with at least 2 GB of RAM and a disk included, and 317 qualify. The leader gets you 4 vCPU · 6 GB RAM · 100 GB NVMe for $5.02/mo.
Value is hardware per dollar: RAM, vCPU, disk and bandwidth for the price, scored out of 100 the same way for every plan in the index.
Every price is the standard monthly rate for a plan with a disk included, before VAT. A plan whose provider was last read more than three days ago, or that the provider shows as sold out, keeps its place but cannot be first.
A plan a provider sells from several price lists, one per currency, is one row at its best-placed price, and the row names the other lists. No provider holds more than 2 of the top 10, so the list shows the market rather than one catalogue; the plans that would have placed are named under the list.
