Introducing updated UpCloud Managed Database plans for PostgreSQL and MySQL. Choose Developer for testing and lighter apps, Standard for general production workloads, or Memory-Optimized for more demanding databases. Storage and compute can scale independently within built-in limits, so adding disk space doesn't require a larger compute plan. For high availability, the second node is 10% off and the third is 30% off. Point-in-time recovery is included, and there are no network egress fees. Sign up with code "Database500" to get €500 in free credits, then deploy your first database on UpCloud. Learn more: eu1.hubs.ly/H0yy5gV0 Sign up: eu1.hubs.ly/H0yy5gw0

Our CEO and Founder, Joel Pihlajamaa, is featured in Tivi, discussing multi-cloud, AI, and digital sovereignty 📰 Joel sees an opportunity for Europe to build the "architecture of trust." Portability is central to that vision, keeping customers in control as technology, regulation, and geopolitical conditions change. Read the full article (in Finnish): eu1.hubs.ly/H0y8xTj0

We recently hosted the first Platform & Infrastructure Community Finland meetup at the UpCloud office 🙌 The evening brought together platform engineers, infrastructure specialists, and cloud architects for three practical talks: • "Extending Platform Engineering to AI" with Mike Vainio and Lauri Suomalainen from Teamit • "Infrastructure as code, knr-ops simplicity" with Joseph Shriner from Polar Squad • "Testing With an OpenTofu Provider" with Toni Kangas from UpCloud Thank you to everyone who joined us for the technical discussions, food, and good company.

What happens when 20 Reaktor tech experts get free rein to build on UpCloud? You get ambitious ideas, unexpected experiments, and some very deep debugging 🛠️ At a hackathon in Helsinki, teams built an AI tool that can analyze calls while keeping data in Finland, traced an 80 ms Kubernetes slowdown to five lines of code, and mapped latency live across every UpCloud region. 🏆 Aapo Haavisto took the win with an open-source logging and monitoring tool built using Grafana Beyla. Thanks to everyone at Reaktor who joined us. We're looking forward to building more together 🤝

Stockholm showed us what a strong platform engineering community looks like 🇸🇪 At Platform Engineering Stockholm, co-hosted with Ankra, Developer Advocate Pawel Piwosz's planned 30-minute session became a 90-minute audience-led discussion on AI sovereignty, maturity, hallucinations, regulation, auditing, LLM hosting, and prototyping. Mark Shine also showed how UpCloud and Ankra can support European cloud services and agentic multi-cloud orchestration. Thank you to Mattias Hemmingsson, Filipe Berti, and everyone who helped create such an open, practical exchange. We're proud to have been part of it 💜

Is your cloud bill growing while your footprint stays the same? Recently, several public cloud providers have shifted storage and IPv4 addresses out of standard instance bundles. While modular pricing has its place, unannounced unbundling leads to unexpected cost spikes. This hits smaller workloads and baseline budgets particularly hard. At UpCloud, we believe pricing clarity is fundamental to operational planning. We offer two distinct approaches so you can optimize your total cost of ownership: • Starter & Premium Plans: All-inclusive pricing featuring compute, storage, IPv4, and data transfer in a single, predictable rate. • Cloud Native: Total architectural independence allowing you to scale compute and storage completely separately. Eliminate billing surprises and optimize your infrastructure budget with confidence: eu1.hubs.ly/H0xQPvK0

Cloud architecture shouldn't require a finance degree to understand 💸 At UpCloud, we paired our fastest infrastructure yet with a transparent pricing model. • 100k MaxIOPS storage • Zero data transfer fees • 100% European owned Top-tier performance shouldn't come with hidden terms: upcloud.com/products/cloud…
