So their network hasn’t had any downtime? Any idea why they would only guarantee 99.9% uptime on their network?

  I've been a hetzner customer for the past 5.5 years now, so far I've received 21 emails from their status reports as follows: 10 from failures (2 or 3 of which directly affected me), 10 emails stating when planned maintenance of certain resources will occur 1 email to let me know of the spectre and meltdown vulnerabilities. So far i'm pretty happy customer, and sending business their way and migrating client's sites to their cloud offerings.

  In the past two years, I remember they have done scheduled infrastructure maintenance twice and unscheduled interruption for a few hours. So, no, it's not 100%. But, AWS has also had some interruptions. From personal experience, this Hetzner downtime has simply been negligible enough. Bigger issue have been replacing commodity memory a few times, which could have been avoided by paying a few more dollars for more quality.

  I haven't noticed any downtime either -- all my downtime has been my own doing -- I only run a few small sites and periodically staging versions of client applications so I don't have a crazy amount of load. I've been using Hetzner for roughly 2 years and am a pretty happy customer. I can say though that the latency is pretty bad when compared to local options -- their server are pretty geographically far from where I and others who use some of my apps access from, and I get ~200ms of latency that I can't do much about. I've looked a traceroute and it's not their network but rather some points in between.
