What is driving it
The backdrop is the memory market: DDR5 contract prices have climbed sharply this year, and the press reporting around OVHcloud's announcement points at the same RAM costs the company named. Gaming servers were reported to be among the hardest-hit lines.
Why we are running this one
A provider announcing a hike is a press release. A provider's prices changing inside an independent monitor's database is a fact. That is the difference DohoHub exists for: you should not have to trust a hosting company's marketing about its own prices — the numbers should be checkable.
