Virtual Instances · $927.1/mo (96 GB RAM, 48 vCPU)
The Scaleway POP2-HC-48C-96G is end-of-life and overpriced at $927/mo for its specs. Multiple dedicated server and cloud alternatives offer 48+ vCPU and 96-128GB RAM for $199-$342/mo, delivering 3-5x better value. However, watch for renewal traps, VAT exclusions, and traffic overage policies before committing.
Bare-metal 48-core EPYC with 128GB RAM and 3.84TB NVMe for $199/mo, plus 20TB EU traffic included, undercuts Scaleway by 79%.
Caveat: Setup fee rising to EUR 159 in 2026; prices exclude VAT; traffic overages charged beyond 20TB pool; AX162-R/S variants cost ~EUR 242/mo.

Caveat: Only 24 vCPU vs 48 on Scaleway; bandwidth overage rates vary by region; Windows license not included; 100% network SLA but lower compute redundancy than dedicated.
