Tilaa
Pros
- + Dutch jurisdiction and Dutch-only datacenters — clean GDPR/data-sovereignty story
- + Unusually transparent spec sheet: CPU share percentages, RAID10 SSD details and fair-use traffic are all published
- + Included extras that competitors charge for: layer-4 DDoS protection, dedicated IPv4+IPv6, one free snapshot, unlimited fair-use traffic
- + 18 years of operating history with ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and ISAE 3402 Type 1 certifications
- + EC2-compatible metadata service and a real API, so standard cloud-init tooling works
Cons
- - Netherlands only — no US, APAC or multi-region footprint
- - Cores are percentage shares (60-80% per core), so the same vCPU count means less compute than elsewhere
- - Promotional entry pricing reverts to 40-60% higher list prices after six months
- - Managed backups (€0.161/GB/month) and extra snapshots are paid add-ons; free snapshot kept only 3 months
- - Hourly billing claimed in older listings is not verifiable on current pages — billing appears monthly
Oracle Cloud (GPU)
Pros
- + Broadest accelerator lineup of any hyperscaler: NVIDIA Blackwell/Hopper/Ampere plus AMD MI300X/MI355X, VMs and bare metal
- + Below-AWS/Azure on-demand GPU list pricing (H100 $10/GPU-hr, A100 80GB $4, MI300X $6) with published, checkable rates
- + Supercluster-class networking (up to 3,200 Gb/sec RDMA) and large local NVMe per node for training checkpoints
- + Credit-backed compute SLA and a full cloud stack (storage, K8s, databases, S3-compatible object) in 50+ regions
Cons
- - GPU quota and capacity processes can require sales engagement; 8-GPU node minimums on the best shapes
- - OCI console/IAM complexity and thinner community documentation than AWS/GCP
- - The 'up to 220% cheaper' claim is a dated vendor comparison; neoclouds undercut on some shapes
- - Egress, storage, image licensing and commitment terms add to headline GPU rates; free tier is CPU-only
