Apps Built with Hetzner

Hetzner appears in African stacks for one dominant reason: price. Dedicated and virtual servers cost a fraction of equivalent capacity from the large hyperscalers, and for a bootstrapped team paying in euros against local revenue, that difference decides what is affordable to run at all. The trade-off is honest and worth stating: the data centres are in Europe, so African users pay a latency penalty unless a CDN sits in front, which is why Hetzner and Cloudflare appear together so often. There are fewer managed services, so teams run their own database, backups and monitoring, which suits engineers comfortable with infrastructure and does not suit everyone. For workloads that are compute-heavy but not latency-critical (background processing, data pipelines, internal tools), the economics are hard to argue with. Browse the products hosted there below.
