What PeaceWeb does

PeaceWeb is a European cloud infrastructure provider headquartered in Rosmalen, Netherlands, operating as a subsidiary of PeaceWeb Group and active in hosting services since 2017. It sells a cloud platform built around EU-only data residency and a direct-ownership dark fiber backbone, positioning itself for GDPR-aligned and sovereign-cloud workloads in contrast to US hyperscalers. The current product surface spans 18 SKUs covering compute, block and object storage, managed databases, networking, security, DNS, SSL and monitoring, with Pulse cloud compute the only fully live offering as of the source date.

Underlying infrastructure is concentrated in a single live datacenter in Rotterdam, with a published roadmap to expand to 8 European sites by Q1 2028 connected by owned dark fiber. The platform architecture is conventional IaaS — virtualized compute, storage and networking primitives — with no disclosed AI/ML, GPU or data-analytics services, and no public APIs listed. The company highlights "No Hidden Fees" pricing but does not publish rates, tiers or contract terms.

The business model combines a self-serve, product-led growth motion for developers and small teams with a separate enterprise field-sales channel aimed at SaaS firms, agencies, resellers and larger accounts. No named customers, revenue figures, funding rounds, management team, partnerships or awards are disclosed in the source material, leaving commercial traction unverifiable from public data.

Revenue model

1. Cloud Compute (Pulse): Virtual instances with dedicated vCPU cores, NVMe storage, and public IPv4/IPv6 addressing. Revenue generated from compute resource consumption with configurable profiles for general-purpose, compute-optimized, and memory-intensive workloads.
2. Block Storage (Vault): High-performance persistent volumes for databases and transactional workloads. Billed based on storage capacity and IOPS consumption.
3. Object Storage (Stash): S3-compatible storage for backups, media, and static assets. Revenue based on storage volume and data transfer.
4. Networking & Security Services: Private networking, load balancing, firewall, and DNS services bundled with compute or sold separately.
5. Managed Database (Core): Managed database services reducing operational overhead for customers requiring database infrastructure.
6. Domain Registration: Domain name registration and transfer services for customers building web presence.
7. Web Hosting: Shared web hosting packages with NVMe storage, free SSL certificates, and automated backups for simpler workloads.
