Simple Private Cloud infrastructure vs. hyperscalers
Webdock delivers simple private cloud infrastructure on dedicated Danish hardware, with transparent pricing and a direct line to senior engineers
The Competitive Gap
When hyperscaler complexity outgrows the workload
The cloud was supposed to make infrastructure easier to manage. Yet for many organizations, navigating large-scale cloud platforms such as AWS and Azure can become increasingly complex as services, configurations, and costs grow over time. Managing performance, budgeting for resource consumption, and maintaining operational clarity often requires significant expertise and ongoing oversight.
Webdock Private Cloud is designed for companies that value simplicity, predictable pricing, and dedicated infrastructure. We provide high performance private cloud environments, transparent costs, and direct access to experienced engineers who understand your setup. The result is a cloud platform that helps teams stay focused on running their applications rather than managing infrastructure complexity.

Flat-rate vs. hyper-variable utility billing
The most significant architectural difference isn't in the silicon, it's in the billing engine. AWS and Azure meter usage such as storage operations, API calls and outbound transfer. Webdock Private Cloud is a transparent cloud hosting alternative built on a flat-rate infrastructure model, backed by our private cloud infrastructure and documented end-to-end, from facility detail in our DK-DC1 datacenter overview to operational and sustainability commitments in our ESG documentation.
Fixed Infrastructure Commit
Provision dedicated hardware and Webdock tech stack at a fixed monthly cost. This creates a predictable budget anchor for your core infrastructure, while instances deployed on your private cluster are billed at simple, discounted rates.
No metered API or IOPS billing
Hyperscalers meter storage operations and API calls, which makes forecasting harder. Webdock provides dedicated infrastructure with transparent monthly pricing, making costs easier to predict and manage.
Low egress, no surprises
Your plan includes outbound bandwidth as part of the monthly price, with straightforward upgrade options available as your requirements grow. That means predictable costs and no unexpected data transfer surprises.
Deep Dive, Legal Frameworks
Data residency, jurisdiction and the US CLOUD Act
Hyperscalers offer EU data residency through data centers in cities such as Frankfurt or Dublin. When the company that controls those servers is US-owned (like Amazon or Microsoft), the data may still be subject to the US CLOUD Act, which may allow US authorities to request access to it. Webdock is Danish owned, and DK-DC1 operates under Danish and EU jurisdiction.

A temporary traffic spike is typically covered by the bandwidth included with your plan and will not result in your connection being throttled. We only count outgoing bandwidth towards your network usage and maintain full port speed during periods of high demand. If unusually high usage occurs, we will notify you so you can verify that the traffic is legitimate and not the result of a compromised system. For customers whose bandwidth requirements consistently exceed the included allowance over longer periods, straightforward overage pricing and upgrade options are available. See our additional products and overage pricing for details. If sustained growth requires additional infrastructure capacity, our engineers can help you scale your environment accordingly.
AWS Dedicated Hosts can involve licensing (BYOL) and capacity reservation decisions. Webdock Private Cloud is single-tenant by design: you get dedicated NVMe nodes and high-frequency cores, managed from the same Webdock dashboard and API.
In many cases, yes. Depending on your environment and service level, Webdock can provide hands-on migration assistance to help minimize disruption during the transition. For customers with migration support included as part of their plan or purchased separately, our engineers can assist with planning, testing, and cutover procedures. We work closely with your team to identify the most appropriate migration approach and reduce downtime wherever possible.
It comes down to corporate structure as well as server location. Webdock is a Danish company with no US parent company or US subsidiaries, operating under Danish and EU law, and your data stays in our own datacenter in Denmark. We sign a DPA with you, which your legal team can review before signing.
