At least some Hetzner offers used to be used servers and they can suddenly fail. I haven't followed them.

But I guess you need to think about your backup plans anyway (depending on what service you run). So using a less reliable provider might just mean that you practice your backup plan slightly more frequently. Some OVH customers can tell you the story when one of their data centers burned down.

I was trying to price up something between hetzner and AWS and as a starting place AWS ends up cheaper until you get to a certain point then hetzner ends up cheaper. Basically wanted 3 servers. One for load balancer and then 2 web servers so I can pop them in and out. But with hetzner it’s minimum like $30/m per server when I only need 2c/2g I get 3 servers at AWS for $32.

not working for them, but a user/fan.

Did you check out hetzner "cloud"? 2c/2g seems to be roughly 5$/Month, x3 would be 15$

It's actually 3.99 euros, which is about $4.21 in USD. It makes a pretty good difference if you need a lot of them.

Damn I’m dumb. I wasn’t looking at the cloud section. Your right. Thank you!
