Brexit changed the legal status of the United Kingdom for European data. Krystal remains a credible host, but its guarantees must be read as those of a third country — not as an EU member.

Anexia combines Virtual Data Center, colocation and CloudStore from Klagenfurt — with global presence and ISO 27001. Investigation — useful Austrian cloud for the EU, or global infrastructure with an AT label?

Leaseweb runs datacenters in Europe, the Americas, and Asia with a network advertised at 99.999% uptime. That only helps if your workload uses it — otherwise you pay for unused transit.
Clever Cloud deploys via Git with SecNumCloud and auto-scaling. In production, Node, Java and stateless PHP shine — heavy WordPress and legacy monoliths less so.
Alwaysdata hosts PHP, Python, Node and Ruby on a flexible French platform. Successful migration for multi-language apps — less for simple brochure sites or heavy Kubernetes cloud.
