koigrid vs Scaleway
Managed, all-in-one, bandwidth included — the simpler alternative to Scaleway.
Scaleway is a solid European cloud, but it is usage-metered and you assemble and operate the pieces yourself — instances, managed database, object storage, load balancer. koigrid gives you those building blocks managed and pre-wired — apps + Postgres HA + Redis + storage + cron — billed by the hour for what you reserve, and agent-native.
Same setup — what you actually pay
You save ~$31/mo (57%)
For a small production app + an HA Postgres database. Estimate from public pricing; koigrid bills reserved resources by the hour, with egress included. (prices reviewed 2026-07-14)

Frequently asked questions
Is koigrid cheaper than Scaleway?
It depends on the workload. koigrid charges for the RAM and disk you reserve, by the hour, shared vCPU included, from a public price list — with bandwidth included and no per-request fees. Egress-heavy setups usually come out well ahead; see the estimate above.
Can I migrate from Scaleway without lock-in?
Yes. koigrid runs on portable primitives — standard PostgreSQL, S3-compatible storage and containers — so you can move in (or out) whenever you want.
Where is my data hosted?
In data centers in the EU, on servers we run ourselves. The privacy policy says exactly where.
Can I run everything from an API or an AI agent?
Yes — koigrid is API-first and agent-native: every action has an API and a scoped token, with llms.txt and OpenAPI so an LLM can operate it end to end.
