Where are Scaleway's data centers located? I found mention on their site that they're a Paris-based company, but is this the only geographical location for their offerings?
- ThePhysicist 11y agoSeems the data centers are also hosted in the Paris area: https://www.scaleway.com/faq/general/ https://www.scaleway.com/faq/general/ "The service is hosted in our own datacenters, Iliad’s datacenters, DC2 and DC3. Both are located near Paris, France." I have to say this is quite an interesting offer, especially for private/side projects. Currently I rent a virtual server at Hetzner, which costs me 23 € / month and is way below the specs mentioned on the Scaleways page, so I am compelled to switch, provided reliablity is good.
- mromanuk 11y agoThe problem is the latency (if your customers are in America).
- sspiff 11y agoInteresting. I'm currently using servers by OVH, which compete in the same low-end segment using their Kimsufi[1] offering, and have datacenters in France, Canada and Germany. Paris is close to me, so these might be interesting for VNC or other low-latency applications. [1] http://kimsufi.com http://kimsufi.com
- Sami_Lehtinen 11y agoNope, OVH doesn't have data center in Germany afaik.
- sspiff 11y agoI was mistaken, I thought they had one in Frankfurt, but it seems the closest they get is Strassbourgh, Near the French/German/Belgian border.
- reynoldsbd 11y agoBummer, if they had (or if they eventually open) something here in the states, this would begin to look very attractive.
- mromanuk 11y ago+1 I was looking for DC locations, too.
