Why teams deploy with us in the EU

Dedicated infrastructure, EU-resident by design, with the honesty about jurisdiction that a compliance program actually needs.

Availability

Hardware is in stock

Servers racked in Amsterdam, ready to deploy now. Bare metal and private cloud servers in stock deploy same day. Configs not in stock typically rack within a few weeks.

Residency

Your data stays in the EU

Workloads run and data is stored in our Amsterdam facility. We don’t move it, mirror it, or process it elsewhere unless you build that architecture yourself.

Control

You control the stack

Dedicated hardware, full root access, your own encryption and key management. We operate the data center and hardware layer. What runs on it, and who can see it, is up to you.

Pricing

Predictable pricing

Fixed monthly pricing with no metered surprises and no mid-contract rate hikes. Generous egress allowances mean almost no customers pay extra for network traffic.

What’s available in Amsterdam

Single-tenant configurations racked in AMS today. Choose to provision as dedicated bare metal or an OpenStack and Ceph-powered private cloud.

All configs include 20Gbps private bandwidth; public bandwidth ranges from 2Gbps (Medium) to 10Gbps (XXL). Prices shown are subject to change at any time. OpenMetal honors written quotes up to 30 days after issuing. Hardware is available on month-to-month terms or with up to 5-year contracts so you can lock in your payment.

Hosted private cloud in the EU

Our private clouds deploy as a hyperconverged set of three or more servers powered by OpenStack and Ceph. Compute, block, and object storage in one environment, on hardware only you occupy. Deployment is roughly 45 seconds to a production-ready OpenStack environment.

GPU workloads

We don’t stock GPU servers in Amsterdam today. For committed deployments we can arrange GPU hardware in the EU with roughly two months of lead time.

One EU footprint, a continent of reach

AMS-IX adjacency puts most of Western Europe close, serves the UK without UK–EU transfer complexity, and performs well for teams spanning Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

FAQ

The questions we frequently get from teams looking for EU infrastructure.

Ask us something else →

Is OpenMetal subject to the US CLOUD Act?
Yes. We’re a US company, so US legal process applies to us, as it does to every US-owned provider regardless of where their data centers sit. Our architecture limits what we can produce: we don’t hold your encryption keys, we don’t have credentials to your environment, and on TDX-enabled hardware your data remains encrypted even while in use.
Where exactly is my data?
In our Amsterdam, Netherlands facility. We don’t replicate or move customer data to other regions unless you build that architecture yourself.
How fast can I deploy?
In-stock bare metal provisions in minutes through self-service. Private clouds deploy in about a day. Out-of-stock configurations typically arrive within a few weeks.
Do I get access to the BIOS or other hardware-level access?
Yes, you get full access to your bare metal. IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) facilitates bare metal as a service with an easy to use remote management system.
Can I run confidential computing workloads in the EU?
XL v4 servers with Intel TDX are available in Amsterdam, protecting data in use at the hardware level, including confidential AI inference workloads via TDX combined with Intel AMX acceleration.
Do you offer GPUs in Amsterdam?
Not from stock. For committed deployments we can arrange EU GPU capacity with roughly two months of lead time.
