Scaleway C1 Dedicated ARM Server Price Drops to 3 Euros Per Month

Scaleaway launched their hosting services with dedicated ARM servers based on Marvell Armada 370/XP quad core ARM Cortex A9 processor this spring for 10 Euros per month, or 0.02 Euro per hour, and at the time, some people found it was not that attractive, as similarly priced plans provided by Linode or DigitalOcean with Intel server were also available, and it might have only been really compelling for people who specifically required an ARM server to play with. The company has now slashed its price, and it has become very attractive at 2.99 Euros (~$3.37 US) per month or 0.006 Euro per hour, excluding VAT.

  1. Shouldn’t be surprised. I would not pay 10 EUR for low-end SOC, you can get a lot better x86_64 VPS for that price.

  2. They’ve launched Scaleway C2 based on Intel Atom Avoton processor: https://blog.scaleway.com/2016/03/08/c2-insanely-affordable-x64-servers/

    Pricing is what’s makes this interesting with all plans having 50GB storage and unmetered bandwidth:
    The Starter VPS, a 2 x64 cores server with 2GB of ram at €2.99 a month
    The C2S, a 4 x64 cores server with 8GB of ram at €11.99 a month
    The C2M, a 8 x64 cores server with 16GB of ram at €17.99 a month
    The C2L, a 8 x64 cores server with 32GB of ram at €23.99 a month
