What was the problem with Cloud66?

I looked at Render but they move data out of the chosen region (so out of EU) and that is a huge issue for our clients. They also proxy through Cloudflare which is another big problem when you are dealing with sensitive data.

Re: Render + Cloudflare, all data is encrypted all the way to Render. What is the specific issue you're referring to?

The main problem is that data is transferred out of EU, it is simply not acceptable for a EU company regardless of any DPA (history have shown here that any such DPA would be invalid in the near future).

However some of our clients (for example in health or financial industry) would be concerned that data is proxied through a third-party, doesn't matter if it is encrypted (also it's unclear to me how keys etc are managed and what data Cloudflare can access).

btw: Render looks awesome but at the current offering is it not an option for us.

Understood on data transfer out of the EU. It's high up on our list. Also very happy to share details on CF encryption over email ([e-mail]).

Agreed, this would also be a deal-breaker for us.
