This sounds pretty underwhelming and probably what's preventing me from migrating infra to Ashburn. Other than that, looks pretty great bang for buck.

If you setup the server in the EU why would anyone in US have access to it?
Because some American courts like to think they have jurisdiction everywhere as long as there's a US entity involved

That surprises me (not that I'm particularly educated on this), any links to more info on why GDPR requires that?
The Schrems II judgement might be applicable. I know that in the EU-based company I work for we have strict requirement for all cloud providers to comply with Schrems II, and not send/store any personal data to outside EU. https://www.gdprsummary.com/schrems-ii/
This is huge, 1cpu, 2gb or ram, 20TB of bandwidth on each vm for $3.99.
Great deal, I use OVH Starter VPS that is a fraction cheaper at $3.50 (same config) For testing and personal use I found both offers to be top-notches and only DC location could be a decision factor here

NTT/RagingWire VA1. Here's the details about the sea shipment that was sent from Hetzner Online GmbH in Germany to the US subsidiary: https://www.importgenius.com/importers/hetzner-us
Oh wow, that's really amazing. Thanks for the info! So they shipped a 40ft container full of servers via ship to the US? That really surprises me, I always thought this kind of equipment was done via air cargo only.

Not sure about their cloud services, but their dedicated servers offering is unmatched anywhere. Unfortunately they only have DCs in Finland and Germany, would love to see it expanded. Anyone here sitting on any information if they are planning to extend their locations?
Was quite surprised that they use custom built server racks with their own custom-made mainboards delivered by OEMs. They even have their own long-term Fan testing rigs and custom HDD failure check setups.

Same, have been a happy Hetzner customer for 8+ years because they've consistently offered the best dedicated server pricing with essentially free (20TB) bandwidth. Unfortunately they're only offering their "Cloud" hosting packages for the time being, so it'll be a while before they start offering dedicated servers. Once they offer dedicated servers in US and a managed RDS service I can finally look at moving off AWS…
Yes! And their support is amazing too. Doing business with Hetzner somehow always feels very different to e.g. Amazon, or the other tech giants. I wonder if it may be related to the general business mentality (Germany vs USA), and not only the company size.
