When you create a new cloud server, there is a tab called CEPH (for the Ceph network filesystem).
It does not have any options and it looks like it is not active yet. It would be great if they offered network storage through Ceph.

Because product page doesn't include VAT. But once you login the VAT is applied on the prices.
Makes sense, but not how it's usually done in Germany.
It's primarily aimed at a B2B market, so the prices shown to guest users exclude VAT. Once you are logged in, they can tell whether you have a tax ID on your account and will show you the appropriate price.

I am also on Linode as its price point is its strength. Really considering if Hetzner would charge forex on US cards, otherwise, seems like a good plan.
Does anybody know if Hetzner charges forex on US debit/credit cards ?
That’s actually up to your credit card company, not the merchant.
Re: Hetzner Cloud
#234No clue about this new product, but their previous virtual server offering had NATed IPv4 and they generally have an idiotic IPv6 policy (only small prefixes, you have to pay extra to get anything remotely sensible--like, default /64 even on dedicated servers, you can get a /56 if you pay for it, more isn't supported).
Could you explain why a /64 is too small for you? I'm really curious.
Because that is the size of a single subnet, so you cannot do any useful network design with that.
Also, mind you that they have a /29 assigned from RIPE, so they would have sufficient space for 134,217,728 /56s or 524.288 /48s. They choose to leave all that address space unused for nothing, forcing their customers to work around a completely artificial scarcity of address space. Exactly the opposite of why they got a /29 from RIPE (and they could easily get more if they did actually manage to use it up).

#235Been using Hetzner for years, their hardware's has been rock solid, predictable pricing with sweet price/performance ratio resulting in large savings from consolidating existing AWS EC2 instances. Still using AWS for Apps which rely on cloud features, e.g. SES/RDS/etc but for static servers Hetzner is now our goto. Super exciting to see them entering the cloud space and offering easy snapshots + backups, should open…
in my previous gig we used hetzner server to have several VMs and storage of that server failed , resulting that all our production servers went down. luckily we had backups, and restored partially our production, but after that incident we moved everything to DigitalOcean, just to not risk anymore. so our experience was bitter with Hetzner.
So you had a local attached SSD and that crashed and your production site went down. And you moved to a different provider.

I don’t mind the latency. I rent a a large GPU server from them for my own machine learning experiments. Their prices are so reasonably inexpensive that this is affordable. I think it would be more expensive for them to provide the same service in the USA - I base this in pricing. OVH is the only local provider I have used that is somewhat price competitive.
Which plan do you use?
the [EX51-SSD-GPU](https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ex51-ssd-gpu) is the only GPU plan they offer

You can still order the previous CX line of servers (the "vServers") via the customer administration interface. There is no official EOL posted yet for the previous CX line. --Katie, Marketing
Thank you, that wasn't clear from my previous interactions. It would be great to have an EOL warning at least a few months before a service line is discontinued, just to provide enough time for customers to move critical/production workloads to another infrastructure provider.
We won't cancel the existing servers/customers. You just won't be able to order the product anymore. --Katie, Marketing, Hetzner Online

#238To Hetzner:
Any plans to move existing managed servers into the new API? (at least for traffic, invoices etc.) - we currently run a mixed setup with managed servers and CX20/CX30.

#239Can you upload ISO files?
Once you have your own server, you can of course upload whatever you want. But you're probably asking about booting from an ISO image. As a few other people have said, Hetzner offers a "boot from rescue image" service which apparently lets you boot from an uploaded ISO. I never tried this on my own Hetzner server though. If you're hardcore, you can also do what a friend of mine did: Use the provided Linux system (Deb…
The reason I ask is that I have some specific Windows software and I would like to upload Windows ISO with VirtIO drivers and use my own cd-key instead of paying additional 16 EUR per month for a license that I already have.

#240Hetzner still haven't said anything to me about Spectre/Meltdown, or rebooted my VPS, so I'm not sure I trust them any more!
Our Cloud plattform has applied all currently released stable patches. We expect to apply more patches as they are released by our vendors over the new few days and weeks. The existing CX plattform was, has, and will be updated via live migration without any noticeable customer impact --Katie, Marketing, Hetzner Online
