#380% higher cost and 20x less bandwidth. Holy cow. Singapore servers are expensive.

As with all of our locations, we strive to keep our costs a low as possible. Traffic plays a major role in the costs of our cloud servers. Our analyses have shown that the majority of users tend to require less traffic. Therefore we adjusted the included traffic. This means that the many users with low consumption do not pay for the few users with high consumption, and we can make the prices fairer overall. --Katie

#6Great news though I wonder why we're continuing with 7002 in new locations.
I get the consistency but by now that's 2 (almost 3) generations old. Would rather have a new start. The 7002 is due for an upgrade. At some point it's no longer a price advantage when the hard is so behind.

Asian traffic are generally expensive. OVH (their competitor) offers unlimited bandwidth, except in Australasia where it's cutthroat (1 TB for their lowest plans) and from what I heard OVH's Asian servers are worse in some ISP combinations, for example with Telkom Indonesia, that ironically their European servers are faster (it seems that ISPs are just extortionate here).

Do you expect the traffic price to come down over time for Singapore, or not really? I'm based in Australia, and will need to get a server set up sometime in the not too distant future, so Singapore might be a good option.
I have a small suggestion: I found it confusing that the price was € 7.40 in the infobox, but € 8.14 in the Traffic section. The infobox mentioned it's exclusive of tax, so I realised the latter figure includes GST for me, but it was a little confusing at first, having it shown two different ways.

We don't expect the prices for Singapore to decrease in the near future. Thanks for considering us as a viable option for your future server.
Thanks for the feedback about the prices/taxes. We're always working on how best to display/communicate that because we know it can be confusing. The price that you see displayed on Cloud Console (once you have an account) automatically takes all of the factors that affect your price into account. --Katie
Re: Hetzner Cloud Expands to Singapore
#10How does Hetzner manage to be so much cheaper than AWS & GCP? Are the other cloud providers just making THAT much margin, or does Hetzner have a special angle?
