Hetzner is popular low cost provider based in Germany, operating facilities in Nuremberg, Falkenstein, Tuusula, and colos in Ashburn, Hillsboro, and Singapore. At this time the only GPUs available are the RTX 4000 and RTX 6000, likely due to some environmental limitations in their datacenters. Until Hetzner adds high end datacenter GPUs for users to build clusters they will remain in the underperforming category for our criteria.
