Why host in France
Paris is our most affordable location. It is the place to start when you need a real, physical server on a small budget – for a VPN, a backup target, a development box or a small website. The Xeon E3 servers with 32 or 64 GB of RAM and three SSDs are strong value for virtualisation and databases.
A server in France is also the right home for French-language projects: it is close to users in France, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg, and well connected to North and West Africa.
Data protection
France applies the GDPR, supervised by the national authority CNIL.
Frequently asked
Why is the Paris Atom server so cheap?
It uses an older, low-power Intel Atom processor with 2 cores. It is fine for light tasks such as a VPN, monitoring, a mail relay or backups, but for busy websites choose one of the Xeon servers.
