Overview

Scaleway is assessed as coherent product-and-region configurations. Product availability, not provider-wide portfolio claims, determines eligibility. Pricing is published in EUR before VAT, so SolutionRay does not invent a dollar total for modular configurations.

Privacy source: provider documentation. Verified: 2026-10-03. “Not verified” is not the same as “No.”

A selected Scaleway EU region supports EU workload-location evidence. The public DPA and subprocessor material do not verify that all relevant processing, operational access and subprocessors remain solely in the EU/EEA for every qualifying product, so strict EU/EEA-only processing remains Not verified.

Pros

  • Four customer-selectable European Public Cloud regions with material location-specific service modelling
  • Root-capable Virtual Instances, VPC, managed Load Balancers, storage and provider-operated Kapsule
  • Kapsule regional clusters with HA Dedicated control planes can support a multi-zone control-plane configuration in the three-AZ regions
  • S3-compatible Object Storage offers a documented Multi-AZ class in Paris, Amsterdam and Warsaw

Things to consider

  • Virtual Instance compute pricing excludes storage and attached public IPv4
  • File Storage is currently Paris-only; Amsterdam availability is documented as upcoming
  • Milan has one Availability Zone and cannot meet a mandatory multi-zone requirement
  • Kapsule multi-AZ workers do not make AZ-scoped persistent volumes automatically resilient
  • Strict EU/EEA-only processing is Not verified for the qualifying services
