Do you mean that as in, within reasonable latency of Ukraine? Because if so, Hetzner have locations in Nuremberg and Helsinki which should be useful.
I mean as in servers located in Ukraine.
I’ve used Hostpro in the past. The VPS I used was hosted in the Netherlands but they’re a Ukrainian company IIRC and they have Kyiv as an option. I recall them being fine, nothing special, and fairly cheap.
Why would you want one?
I guess to support the Ukranian economy specifically. But I also have mixed feelings about hosting relevant stuff in a country with regular power outages and where hardware might be destroyed or stolen anytime.
Not the entire country is on fire. Actually, I was thinking of starting one myself (I started, but only for myself, and to test waters, so at this point that’s self-hosted adventure: I have a few servers in just three locations). I’m in the west, so it’s quite stable here, more or so. However, we do have blackouts at this moment. One location is the office building, which has lots of solar panels, so that very server never went offline!
My concern is, I don’t know if/how that could be abused by Russians. Especially now, during the active war phase.
I’d love that to be a thing for someone who needs it, and it could be some support for the local economy either, so win win for everyone. But I’m very hesitant of the bad actors. Unfortunately, I don’t have the needed knowledge (meaning deep knowledge of some edge cases) at this very moment, but I keep thinking of buying a somewhat large land mass for a house plus a separate building for servers and all that. I imagine it won’t be something of a real data centre, but it might be a decent one (one day).
I’m not aware of any projects like that, I’m a foreigner here.
My first thought too
