Where Scaleway fits
Scaleway is a strong, sustainable EU cloud, and a good fit if you want Apple silicon billed by the hour for short bursts, tight integration with the rest of the Scaleway platform. If you want a clean dedicated Mac with full control, flat pricing and support included for always-on work, that is where Green Mini host is built to win.
Your data stays under your control
An MDM profile lets the provider push software, change settings and reach the machine remotely. If that management system is ever breached, an attacker inherits the same reach. We leave that profile off entirely, so your Mac answers only to your team.
We never hold your passwords
Your account passwords and disk-encryption keys stay with you and never sit on our systems. A breach on our side gives an attacker nothing that would unlock your machine or read your data.
Lower cost for always-on Macs
Scaleway bills by the hour with a 24-hour minimum, so an M4 left running comes to about €160 a month. Our M4 plans are a flat €69 a month, built for machines that stay on.
One predictable price
One flat monthly price instead of an hourly meter, so a build server or runner you keep running around the clock will not surprise you on the invoice.
More than Mac minis
Choose any Mac mini or Mac Studio configuration we have available, or ask for a custom setup. Scaleway's Apple silicon line is Mac mini only, in a fixed set of configurations with set memory and storage.
Support included, never upsold
Every plan includes 24/7 emergency support and free remote hands during business hours, so a human is ready when something needs attention.
