Servers are created in the customer’s own cloud account, what is bought is the tooling that manages them. The bill splits in two, the infrastructure relationship stays with the customer, and the provider can be replaced without moving anything. It is also why some of these records have no regions of their own to report.

4 providers run on hardware you bring, listed alphabetically. Mostly platform as a service, gpu cloud and serverless, of 5 categories in all. 176 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way.

  • Elestio

  • lowcloud

Which of these providers is best?

Hard to say without knowing the project. A free tier matters for a side project and barely at all for a shop that loses money every minute it is down. Read a few records side by side; the guide says where to start.
