    > ‘roll your own cloud’ is becoming more feasible

    https://opennebula.io is worth looking at for that sort of thing (not that it's new). You don't have to do it that way, but its "edge" support for simple provisioning on bare metal providers doesn't include Hetzner; I think it assumes you can get instances on demand. That sort of solution isn't complex or expensive enough for my site, and doubtless others, though. Especially when you just want compute, I can't see the point in the pain (which surprised us) and expense of AWS et al.

    Personally, I would recommend OpenNebula.io for the simplicity and its enterprise cloud capabilities. You can deploy your own infrastructure components (using Open Source virtualization tech or your existing VMware infrastructure), pick any service provider you would like to go ahead with, and have clear independence with the kind of storage solution that would fit your needs.
