At Scaleway, we have always believed that the relationship with our customers is a true partnership. We aren't just another cloud vendor; we are the foundation upon which our customers build, scale, and grow their businesses. Because true partners share both the wins and the realities of the market, we decided to provide complete transparency regarding the upcoming change to our pricing, effective June 1st 2026.
We want to share exactly why this is happening, how we approached it, and what it means for the future of our customers' infrastructure.
Price increase: a global market reality.
The tech industry is currently navigating an unprecedented set of global economic pressures. Broad-scale inflation and a severe, ongoing hardware crisis have fundamentally shifted the economics of providing cloud infrastructure. Specifically, the global market is experiencing significant price surges in the cost of raw hardware, particularly impacting storage and RAM. Furthermore, the growing global IP shortage we know since years now has added an additional layer of complexity and cost to network provisioning.
3 years of stability and an ever-stronger portfolio
For the past three years, our priority has been to shield our customers from these economic realities. We have proudly held our prices flat, absorbing the growing global pressures entirely.
More importantly, during this three-year period of price stability, we did not slow down our innovation or cut corners. We continuously invested heavily in our Public Cloud and Dedibox ecosystem. We expanded our feature set, integrated top-performing hardware and technologies, and vastly improved the underlying security and resiliency of our infrastructure. Our goal has always been and remains at providing an ever-stronger portfolio that meets our customers highest demands.
Investing in a long-term viability
We have reached a point where completely absorbing these external costs is no longer feasible if we are to maintain the exceptional standards our customers expect from us. However, we refused to take the easy route of an across-the-board, blanket price hike.
Instead, our Product, Sales, Financial and Data teams executed a meticulous, product-by-product analysis. We examined every component of our ecosystem to ensure that any price adjustments made are highly accurate and fair.
We want to be incredibly clear: we are not raising our prices simply because "the market is doing it."
This well-considered increase is a necessary step to ensure the long-term viability, performance, and sustainability of the specific tools our customers’ businesses rely on. By adjusting the pricing on these specific resources, we can guarantee that Scaleway will continue to deliver the cutting-edge performance, top-tier hardware, and bulletproof resiliency European businesses require to thrive both today and in the future.
Specific market repositioning
Beyond the immediate pressures of inflation and hardware costs, some of our adjustments are driven by a strategic repositioning within the global cloud market. This is particularly relevant for our network products, such as Public Gateways and Load Balancers. For these specific services, we have moved away from a broad-scale pricing model toward one that more accurately reflects the specialized value and high-performance throughput they provide. By aligning these products with current market standards, we ensure that we can continue to invest in the advanced features—like increased bandwidth and enhanced security protocols—that our customers require for their mission-critical networking needs.
