Hetzner is fantastic, at least if you're European (it only has data centres in Germany and Finland). We've used them for 8-ish years, and _never_ had any problems.

At the moment we're running a 3-node Galera-powered MySQL cluster on the EX52-NVME servers,[0] costing a _total_ of $2,800/year.

Hey, did you have any public-facing websites, or just private Databases? I heard Hetzner DDoS is pretty bad, and during a DDoS, SSL (https) does not work correctly.

We've run pretty much everything on Hetzer. DDoS has never been a problem, but we usually deploy Varnish in front of the web servers to handle traffic.
