The pricing on their dedicated servers are cheaper than most 1-2GB VMs on cloud: https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/bare-metal/ - this is their flagship and most expensive brand, the cheaper ones are even less

I can imagine a provider that offers "Disaster Recovery Plan" in the sense that you push a button and they spin up [whatever machines you subscribe to] in a different data center and restore your latest backup to it.

Or the button flips your DNS from your usual primary servers to a hot backup (or a cold backup that you brought online yourself).
