총점 보류
The evidence coverage is insufficient for a single overall score. The dimension results below are evidence assessments, not a universal quality ranking.
결론
A clear option for European and multi-region workloads that value zero-cost egress and confirmed dual-stack networking. The overall score is withheld because backup terms, taxes and independent performance are not fully assessed.
평가 항목
Assessed dimensions have a score and rationale. Not-assessed dimensions remain visibly unknown; they are not assigned a neutral score.
| 항목 | 상태 | 점수 | 근거와 증거 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location fit | assessed | 3 / 5 | The data-center page lists Helsinki, London, Warsaw, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, San Jose, New York, Singapore and Sydney, all captured here. Per-size stock is not confirmed. |
| Network performance | not assessed | 총점 보류 | No independent throughput, latency or packet-loss test was run on this provider. |
| Policies and limitations | assessed | 3 / 5 | Zero-cost egress, included IPv4 and free public IPv6 are stated. Backup pricing, snapshot inclusion, SLA terms and refund policy were not fully reviewed. |
| Price transparency | assessed | 4 / 5 | Prices exclude local taxes and are charged hourly with a monthly estimate. USD values use the ECB reference rate and are rounded. |
| Source freshness | assessed | 5 / 5 | The selected official sources were observed on 2026-10-24. |
| Specifications | assessed | 4 / 5 | Memory, CPU cores, bandwidth, standard SSD storage and monthly EUR price are published for each Starter plan. Virtualization is not stated. |

강점
- Zero-cost egress under the provider's Fair Transfer Policy.

적합한 용도
- Egress-heavy services that benefit from zero-cost transfer
- Dual-stack services with confirmed IPv4 and IPv6
- European or multi-region small deployments
부적합한 용도
- Backup-critical workloads without further verification
- Buyers who need a tax-inclusive quote from this dataset
- Workloads requiring measured performance
알려진 미확인 사항
- Backup pricing
- Snapshot inclusion
- Virtualization
- Local tax treatment
- Independent performance and reliability
제한
- Provider pricing and data-center pages only; no UpCloud instance was purchased or benchmarked.
- Six plans and nine selected locations are covered, not the full UpCloud catalog.
Correction path: use the source links and verification dates to challenge a claim. Do not treat an old snapshot as current.
대안
Scaleway DEV1-M
Comparable 4 GB plan with API evidence, though block storage and egress differ.
Vultr Cloud Compute 2 vCPU · 4 GB
Similar 4 GB class with API-published locations, but IP support is unknown there.
