I have multiple Barebone servers with Hetzner, never had any problems. The only thing I don't like is their control panel. Edit: Their Cloudhosting control panel is top notch.

Hi! :) The whole architecture has been redeveloped from scratch. We have also designed and developed an entirely new control panel called the Hetzner Cloud Console. It is and will be actively worked on to make it as easy to use as possible for our users. Feedback is highly appreciated :) Also the new cloud servers are billed hourly instead of monthly, as the old VPS were. Full disclosure: I work for Hetzner Cloud as…

You dedicated servers page doesn't work anymore: https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver?country=us

No matter what filter settings (including default) I see 0 results.

Loving the competition in the market. Object Store would be nice. Can't wait to see what happens when NAND/DRAM markets start clearing and there are multiple competitive 7nm nodes.

Not German, but European Laws apply. This ( http://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj ) replaces all data proyection laws in the EU. Must comply now, but sanctions won't be in effect until may 25th.

EDIT: I seem to be wrong. This is a hybrid of a EU regulation that needs to be implemented into local law, and "EU law" that has direct application everywhere. Also there are specific rules on how much stronger the member states can make their local rules. I'm leaving my error in the text below. That is not technically correct, and the difference matters. The EU regulation forces it's members to implement their own l…

Your comment is not strictly "wrong", as you say, it's just that the law is changing. The new regulation comes in* on May 25th. Your comment correctly describes the current system, which is being replaced.

* By "comes in", I mean begins being enforced. There's been a 2 year grace period as advance notice.

If all you’re using is EC2 or GCE (ie: plain VMs) you’re just wasting money anyway. You’d be better served by going with one of the cheaper alternatives that only do VMs, so Hetzner or Digital Ocean or Linode or whatever doesn’t really matter...

Not if you need specialized vms like a p2.

or a network.

Maybe you could get them to accept a notarized translation (Beglaubigte Übersetzung) of your ID. It's gonna add about 50€ up-front cost, so I don't know if that's worth the price or the hassle at your project scope.

No, thanks :D. 50 euros are about 1000 EGP. I could issue 10 passports with that amount of money :D

not in germany. you would only get one which is only usable for 5 years.

I can remember Hetzner has been around for as long as OVH. Why has OVH expanded now way beyond France to US, Asia etc while Hetzner still EU only?

With Google, Microsoft Facebook as well as Amazon leading the way in layering out cables across continent, having a server in US means you have a high probability most ISP in the world has tuned the networking route around those traffic. The same cant be said for EU.

Sorry to say this, but that is a pretty ignorant comment.

Ignorance to portray a point

The reasonable assumption in 2018 is that everything is always connected to the Internet, whether you intentionally connected or not, and the only thing you can reasonably control is the latency.

That air-gapped server sitting in a grounded bank vault filled with pure nitrogen gas is still somehow leaking data out, and you just haven't yet figured out when or how. Maybe little cockroaches fitted with tiny SCUBA rebreathers and brain-control chips are crawling in through a dime-sized hole and sticking their aluminized antennae into the USB ports.

Does anyone know off hand whether whether it's possible to install nixos on Hetzner cloud servers, either manually or using nixops?

nixops has hetzner deployment support, but I don't yet know how well it works (my account verification is still pending)

For those of you looking for competitive prices with servers in the U.S., take a look at SSD Nodes—a bootstrapped hosting provider I've been working on since 2011. I'm the founder and CEO, so I'm a little biased, but we're offering 16GB of RAM plus KVM for a price that's more than competitive with Hetzner, and have clients posting excellent benchmarks, like 1.1 GB/s throughput and 480K IOPS[0].
