Reality went the opposite way. Hetzner dominates Europe with ARM Ampere pricing, OVHcloud has recovered from the 2021 Strasbourg fire, DigitalOcean acquired Cloudways and Paperspace, Linode became Akamai Cloud Compute, Vultr raised 333M USD to expand global PoPs, Scaleway and Contabo and UpCloud hold the European flank, AWS Lightsail offers an on-ramp, Korean providers NHN Cloud / Naver Cloud Platform / KT Cloud serve domestic traffic, and Japanese providers Sakura / ConoHa / IDCF keep the local market healthy. With the 2024 Cloudflare egress fee pressure, ARM CPUs, and spot/preemptible trends as backdrop, this guide walks through every player and tells you who should pick what for hobby projects, side SaaS, Korean traffic, Japanese traffic, and global production workloads.

Hetzner의 ARM Ampere로 가성비 천하통일, OVHcloud의 화재 복구와 BareMetal 회복, DigitalOcean의 Cloudways·Paperspace 인수, Linode가 된 Akamai Cloud Compute, Vultr의 글로벌 PoPs, Scaleway·Contabo·UpCloud의 유럽 전선, AWS Lightsail의 입문 카드, 그리고 한국의 NHN Cloud·Naver Cloud Platform·KT Cloud, 일본의 さくらインターネット·ConoHa·IDCF까지 — egress 수수료 전쟁, ARM CPU, spot/preemptible 흐름과 함께, 개인 토이부터 한국·일본 트래픽 사이트까지 누가 무엇을 골라야 하는지를 정리한다.
