Pros & Cons

OVHcloud

Advantages

European provider with data centers in France, Germany, the UK, and Poland, relevant for GDPR and data-residency requirements
Hourly and monthly billing on the same GPU flavors
Both GPU instances and a per-token inference API from one account
Published list prices for every GPU flavor

Considerations

GPU lineup centers on H200, H100, L40S, and L4; no Blackwell instances on the public price list
Most GPU flavors are available in only one or two regions
Part of the GPU list is older V100 and V100S hardware

Scaleway

Advantages

GPU lineup spanning L4 through B300-SXM (Blackwell) in 1-8 GPU configurations
Two inference paths: serverless per-token Generative APIs and dedicated GPU deployments for the same model catalog
European headquarters with data residency across multiple multi-AZ EU regions
Free tier for trying Generative APIs, including a token allowance and audio transcription minutes

Considerations

On-demand hourly pricing only; no reserved or spot pricing published for GPU Instances
Some GPU types are limited to specific availability zones
Faster support response times require a paid support plan
