Where do you get such low prices for dedicated rigs? Well anyway, looks like you haven't tried to roll your own ES cluster on bare metal hosts - I've got more throughput than yours with 2 Graylog hosts backed by 5x bare metal ES instances. With all benefits of web interface for less tech savvy people, structured logs, analytics and data exposure through unified API. All of these for less than 2k/mo. If I lived in wonderland with server prices like yours, our check would be less than 1k/mo.

I personally use OVH.com and Hetzner (for EU based installations). Don't expect support, but you get good machines, unlimited traffic (OVH). If you can set up your infrastructure so that it's JBOS (Just a Bunch of Servers) where you can hot swap them if there's any hardware failure, etc. it's great price/performance.

Not quite that price, but with 308EUR/month not too far off:

I guess if you buy and host the machines yourself, you should be able to beat hetzner's price.
