(sorry, new to all this)

Are these regions AWS regions? Does that mean you don't pay egress fees between your EC2 instance (or whatever) and the database? Does it mean that the latency is very low?

Hetzner has two locations in the US these days: Ashburn, Virginia, and Hillsboro, Oregon.

Thank you, and yes, we will be in the US in the next few months.

I can't believe it took this long for someone to offer open core, cross vendor cloud deployments.

I feel like this is going to take off, especially if you're targeting Hetzner.

With regards to the latter, have you guys thought about a cross vendor object storage offering? It's the #1 most requested service on Hetzner and they have repeadetly mentioned that they do not want to venture into this space. Feels like a low hanging fruit to take at this point.

Are you guys open for CV submissions? I'm a student from Germany and would love to intern / work for you guys and be a part of this. I've worked with OpenStack previously (though as an end user, not an admin) , which offers some AWS failover capabilities, but nothing truly like this.

Yes, exactly, our object store is in the works.

And thank you, we are hiring. Could you send your CV to imagine at ubicloud dot com?

I’d be curious to talk with you more about this, and suggest some interesting new workflows.

Object storage targets web developers, etc, but enabling certain machine learning patterns could be transformative.

Happy to hear your suggestions, of course, will ping you through your HN profile
