Scaleway
What ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini & Grok actually say · August 2026
The verdict
Scaleway appears in 2 AI-ranked categories.
Superior European price-to-performance ratio, native block storage snapshots, and built-in private VPC networking to securely isolate backend container microservices.
Claude Strong European option with competitive dedicated-core instances, real block storage, private networks, and genuine managed add-ons (Managed DB, S3-compatible object storage, Container Registry) — a good sovereignty/GDPR-friendly home for a Compose production app.
Where Scaleway falls short, per the models
- Claude Smaller region set concentrated in the EU and thinner English-language support/community than the leaders; less ideal outside Europe.
- Gemini Server locations are strictly limited to Europe (Paris, Amsterdam, Warsaw), ruling it out for APAC or global low-latency deployments.

Excellent combination of European data sovereignty, clean API developer experience, private networks (VPC), and competitive pricing relative to major US providers, backed by dedicated CSI and CCM integrations.
Where Scaleway falls short, per the models
- Gemini Charges extra for public IPv4 addresses, and performance on standard dev instances is less competitive than Hetzner.
