Contabo is the German provider that built its reputation on giving you far more RAM, cores and disk than anyone else at the same price. A single entry Cloud VPS ships with multiple vCPU cores and generous NVMe or SSD storage, and the Storage VPS line stretches into terabytes for backup and media workloads. You get full root access, unlimited traffic on a 200 Mbit/s to 1 Gbit/s port, free DDoS protection, snapshots and a choice of data centres across Europe, the US, the UK, Asia and Australia. Raw performance is not the fastest on the market, but for self-hosting, game servers, CI runners and archive storage the value is very hard to beat.
