USD 4.54 a month is confirmed and it is the 12-month-upfront rate. But VPS-1 is 4 GB of RAM and 2 vCPU, not 8 GiB: it is under the line on price and under the beefy bar on memory, so it does not compete with the 8 GiB rows. The next rung up, VPS-2 at USD 8.50, is 8 GB and 4 vCPU and over the line. Two things were not settled: the renewal after the 12-month term (the configurator that would show it refused to load), and whether VAT is added (the page prints no VAT line at all, and the 'World [$]' locale implies no EU VAT for a non-EU buyer). Worst case exposure is not computable without the renewal. - evidence note: price, shape, port and the APAC quota carve-out are quoted from the vendor's own pricing page read. - extras: - shape.vcpu: 2 - shape.ram_gib: 4 - shape.disk_gib: 40 - billing_model: 12-month upfront or monthly - term: 12 months upfront for the USD 4.54 figure - m10h_usd: 4.54 - m24h_usd: 4.54 - price_arithmetic: USD 4.54 a month on the 12-month-upfront term ('pricing=upfront12' in the Configure link). x 12 = USD 54.48 out of pocket. It is a VPS, so no 730-hour multiplication. No conversion was needed: the page prints USD for the World locale. - out_of_pocket_usd: 54.48 - out_of_pocket_note: USD 54.48 is the vendor's own USD rate ($4.54) x 12 on the .com storefront. The EU catalogue price converts to USD 51.17. The two differ because OVHcloud's internal EUR/USD rate sits near 1.19, above the ECB 1.1193; the vendor's own USD figure is the one a buyer on the English site pays. - renewal_usd: not published - renewal_note: not published on the pricing page.

Then traffic: the Asia-Pacific machines, which hold most of that stock, are metered at 25 TB a month where the European ones are unlimited. [1] - limits note: Two gates bind in order. Stock: the advertised EUR 9.99 machine is unavailable everywhere, and the surviving stock is in Singapore, Sydney, Beauharnois, Gravelines and Warsaw. Then traffic: the Asia-Pacific machines, which hold most of that stock, are metered at 25 TB a month where the European ones are unlimited. - binding note: the same as limits note - interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed - tooling: not stated - reliability: no reliability event recorded - notes: Kimsufi is not a separate brand any more: kimsufi.com now redirects to eco.ovhcloud.com, and the KS SKUs sit inside the OVH eco catalogue beside the Advance and Rise ranges. Querying the regional variants as well showed seven orderable codes, and the pattern is that the surviving stock is Asia-Pacific and North American while Europe is empty. So the cheapest orderable Kimsufi is EUR 16.99 in Singapore, not EUR 9.99 anywhere, and the Singapore machine is metered at 25 TB a month. A reader who wants the unlimited European term cannot buy it on this date. The catalogue returns setup fees of 0 for these SKUs while the website prints a one-month installation fee, so the setup figure here comes from the website and the disagreement is recorded rather than resolved. - extras: - facets.class: floor-price - facets.shape.cpu: Intel Xeon E5-1620v2 - facets.shape.vcpu: 4 - facets.shape.threads: 8 - facets.shape.ram_gib: 32 - facets.shape.disk: 1 x 120 GB SATA SSD - facets.shape.bandwidth_mbit: 500 - facets.shape.traffic: unlimited and unmetered in EU, US and CA - facets.shape.price_eur_month: 9.99 - facets.shape.setup_fee_eur: 9.99 - facets.shape.price_eur_month_incl_vat_ie: 12.29 - facets.shape.gpu_count: 0 - facets.shape.price_eur_month_orderable: 16.99 - facets.shape.orderable_where: Singapore (KS-4) - evidence: - [2] 2026-10-22: 99 eco plans; the KS rows start at planCode 25skb012 'KS-B | Intel Xeon E5-1620v2' at 9.99 EUR a month and 25skc012 'KS-C | Intel Xeon E5-1650v2' at 11.99; 26 KS plan codes in total covering 16 machine types, from KS-B to 24sk702 'KS-7 | AMD Epyc 7451' at 61.99 - [3] 2026-10-22: every KS planCode queried one at a time.
