The Sovereign OVHcloud Alternative in India
OVHcloud has an Indian region too - so compare the operation, not the map.
Should you switch from OVHcloud?
OVHcloud runs an Indian region and strong bare metal, so this is not a residency argument. Choose OVHcloud for a global footprint across many regions. Choose DataDack for a single Noida region with Indian-hours engineers, flat rupee pricing, and UPI or Razorpay at checkout.
Who should move, and who should stay
Switch to DataDack if
- Teams whose users are entirely in India
- Buyers who want UPI or Razorpay rather than card-only checkout
- Anyone who wants support in Indian hours from the people running the fleet
- Workloads that want dedicated hardware and VPC from one provider
Stay on OVHcloud if
- You need regions across Europe, North America or APAC - OVHcloud has the footprint
- You are already standardised on OVHcloud tooling and APIs
- You want the widest possible bare-metal SKU catalogue

Moving off OVHcloud, step by step
- Step 1Inventory what runs on OVHcloud today — instance sizes, disks, open ports and DNS records.
- Step 2Pick the matched DataDack plan and create the instance in the console, in the Noida ap-south-3 region.
- Step 3Move the data: restore from a snapshot or image, or sync the application and database over the VPC.
- Step 4Lower the DNS TTL, cut traffic over to the new IPv4 and verify, then destroy the source instance — billing stops the same hour.
What carries over unchanged
A move off OVHcloud is a re-host, not a rewrite. These come with you as they are:
- Your Linux distro and kernel
- Docker and docker-compose files
- Nginx, Caddy or HAProxy configs
- Your CI pipeline - only the deploy target changes
- SSH keys and your existing automation
- Postgres, MySQL, Redis and their dumps
- Cron jobs and systemd units
- Your domain and TLS certificates
DataDack vs OVHcloud: common questions
- How does DataDack's pricing compare with OVHcloud?
- DataDack bills a flat INR amount with a GST invoice rather than a USD card charge plus conversion fees, and charges no egress. Compare a matched instance on the pricing page for the current figure.
- Where do my workloads run after moving off OVHcloud?
- In the sovereign Noida region (ap-south-3), inside Tier-IV facilities operated by Yotta NM1 and CtrlS. Data stays in Indian jurisdiction, which is what makes DataDack DPDP-compliant by default rather than by configuration.
- Is DDoS protection an extra like it is elsewhere?
- No. Always-on Layer 3 / Layer 4 mitigation is standard on every VPS and VM, including the Starter tier, and is never a paid add-on.
- Are there egress or bandwidth charges?
- No surprise egress invoices. Generous transfer is included with every plan and internal VPC traffic is unmetered.
- How long does a migration from OVHcloud take?
- Most single-instance moves are done in an afternoon: create the matched plan, restore your image or sync the app, then cut DNS over. Our engineers will do the first instance with you — ask on /contact before you start.
