Managed Hetzner

Dedicated power, transparent pricing, zero hyperscaler complexity.

Hetzner gives you bare-metal muscle and cloud flexibility at a price that stays predictable. We take care of the rest, from architecture and hardening to operations, so your team ships product instead of managing servers.

Managed Hetzner fleet: a mix of cloud servers and a dedicated server in EU data centres, chosen for strong price-performance.

Hetzner is the German provider engineers choose when they want raw capacity without sticker shock: dedicated root servers, cloud VMs and storage in Falkenstein, Nuremberg and Helsinki, priced transparently and billed by the hour with no surprise line items. What it doesn't come with is a managed-services wrapper, and that's where we step in. nFuse turns Hetzner into a production-grade platform: redundant by design, patched and hardened continuously, monitored around the clock. You keep the cost advantage; we remove the operational risk.

What we manage on Hetzner

Dedicated servers to cloud VMs, one operations team

Dedicated server fleet management

We spec, provision and lifecycle your Hetzner dedicated servers (RAID, networking, firmware, replacements) so bare-metal feels as hands-off as cloud.

Cloud & hybrid architecture

Hetzner Cloud VMs alongside dedicated hardware, connected via vSwitch and private networks, designed for the workload, not the catalogue.

Predictable cost control

No reserved-instance puzzles or savings-plan lock-ins. We right-size monthly, retire idle resources and keep your Hetzner bill exactly what you'd expect.

OS hardening & patching

Unattended security updates, kernel live-patching where supported, CIS-benchmarked baselines, applied consistently across bare-metal and cloud.

24/7 incident response

Hardware faults, network blips, capacity warnings: our on-call team acts on alerts before your monitoring even fires.

Snapshot & off-site backup

Hetzner snapshots for fast rollback, plus encrypted off-site copies to a second location, tested quarterly.

Bare-metal + cloud

Hybrid by design, not by accident

Dedicated servers handle steady-state load; Hetzner Cloud absorbs spikes. Private networking ties them together with consistent firewall rules and internal DNS: one topology, two cost profiles.

Managed Hetzner architecture: a load balancer routes to a cloud server and a dedicated server with backups, inside a Hetzner EU data centre.

Provisioning & IaC

New servers in minutes, not tickets

Terraform defines your cloud resources; Ansible configures bare-metal. Both live in version control, so a single merge request provisions, configures and verifies a new server end to end.

Managed Hetzner infrastructure as code: a main.tf Terraform file flows through plan and apply to provision Hetzner resources: a cloud server, a volume and a load balancer.
Illustrative: example provisioning flow

Hardening pipeline

Every server meets the baseline before it serves traffic

CIS benchmarks, vulnerability scans and compliance checks run automatically on every new machine and every configuration change. Nothing reaches production unhardened.

Managed Hetzner DevSecOps pipeline: commit, build, a security scan and deploy promote every change across dev, test and prod.

What you get

The Hetzner advantage, without the ops burden

Predictable monthly spend

Transparent per-server and per-VM pricing with no surprise fees: what you spec is what you pay.

Bare-metal when it matters

Dedicated CPUs, NVMe and ECC RAM for latency-sensitive or compliance-heavy workloads, with no noisy neighbours.

Fast procurement

Hetzner ships servers in hours; we have them production-ready within a working day.

EU data centres, German jurisdiction

Infrastructure in Germany and Finland under German data-protection law, straightforward for GDPR.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Hetzner pricing compare to AWS or Azure?

For equivalent compute and storage, Hetzner typically costs 60–80% less. The trade-off is fewer managed services, which is exactly what nFuse fills in.

Dedicated servers or cloud VMs: which should we use?

Dedicated for steady, predictable workloads where you want guaranteed resources; cloud for variable traffic and fast scaling. Most clients end up with a hybrid that optimises both cost and flexibility.

Is Hetzner reliable enough for production?

Hetzner operates Tier III data centres with redundant power and connectivity. With our added redundancy layer (failover, monitoring, tested backups) it runs production workloads as reliably as any hyperscaler.

What happens when a dedicated server has a hardware fault?

Our monitoring detects it; we failover traffic, raise a replacement with Hetzner (typically same-day) and restore from backup. You get an incident report, not a 3am page.
