Hetzner Cloud

Hetzner Cloud is a cloud computing platform operated by Hetzner Online GmbH, a German web hosting and data center company founded in 1997 in Gunzenhausen, Bavaria. Known for offering some of the most competitively priced cloud infrastructure in Europe, Hetzner has built a reputation among developers and startups for delivering excellent performance at a fraction of the cost of major US cloud providers.

The Hetzner Cloud platform offers virtual private servers (cloud servers), dedicated servers, load balancers, managed Kubernetes, block storage, object storage, firewalls, and floating IPs. The intuitive API and CLI tools make it easy to automate infrastructure provisioning. Hetzner operates its own data centers in Nuremberg, Falkenstein, and Helsinki, all powered by a commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability.

With over 25 years of experience in hosting and data center operations, Hetzner serves hundreds of thousands of customers across Europe. The company is privately held and has grown organically without venture capital, allowing it to maintain low prices while investing in state-of-the-art infrastructure. For European businesses that want GDPR-compliant cloud hosting without US jurisdiction concerns, Hetzner is one of the most popular choices.
