European cloud servers at a fraction of AWS pricing.
Hetzner Cloud is a European cloud infrastructure provider offering virtual machines (VMs), dedicated servers, object storage, load balancers, and managed Kubernetes at prices significantly lower than AWS, GCP, or Azure. Data centres in Germany, Finland, Singapore, and the United States give flexibility over data residency. Hetzner's API is clean and well-documented, and the web console is straightforward. EU-based infrastructure makes it a natural fit for companies needing GDPR-compliant hosting without overpaying for compute. It is widely used by developers and bootstrapped startups who want reliable, predictable cloud hosting at a fraction of the cost of hyperscaler alternatives.
