German data center giant hikes prices up to 37% starting April 1 — Hetzner cites rising hardware costs for price increases

German data center operator Hetzner is increasing prices on various products by up to 37% starting April 1, 2026, citing significant price hikes in the IT sector. The price increases impact cloud, dedicated server, storage, and load balancer services across European, U.S., and Singapore data centers. Cloud server prices in Germany and Finland are rising by 30% to 37%, while dedicated servers are also seeing price hikes. Hetzner attributes the changes to rising infrastructure operating costs and higher hardware acquisition prices, following a previous increase in setup fees due to hardware component costs.
