Video hosting: moving images without platform lock-in

centron offers a wide range of hosting solutions for professional video streaming services, media libraries and on-demand platforms. Our ccloud³ VMs are flexible, scalable and ideal for data-intensive workloads. They start from just €3.11 per month and can be expanded vertically with additional resources or horizontally with several instances. Complement your set-up with object storage or load balancing.

In traffic: nothing – external traffic from S3 Object Storage is free. You pay for the storage used from €5.00 per month and once for the encoding power; the views themselves don’t break any budget.

centron offers transparent, calculable prices for your video hosting. With a basic VM from just €3.11 per month and free traffic, you always stay in control of your spending. Our cloud servers are ideal for projects of every size.

The starting prices are deliberately low: S3 Object Storage from €5.00 per month, Cloud GPU from €92.59 per month and ccloud³ VMs from €3.11 per month. New accounts receive a €200 starting credit valid for 60 days – you can calculate the cost of your specific configuration transparently using the price calculator.

At centron you receive free technical support via our ticket system. Our competent team is quickly at your side – at no extra cost. You also benefit from extensive documentation and hands-on tutorials.

With Kubernetes hosting, centron offers an ideal solution for dynamic video streaming hosting. Scale your infrastructure in real time based on viewer numbers – fully automated, with the AutoScaler and cost optimisation by load.

For reliable storage and fast delivery of your video data, centron offers S3-compatible object storage – encrypted in transit, with free traffic in both directions. Even large video files can thus be backed up and delivered efficiently.

German companies face high requirements for data protection and data security when using object storage. What matters is GDPR-compliant processing of all content, especially for videos that may contain personal data. This includes encrypted transmission (TLS), secure storage, clear access controls, comprehensive rights management, redundancy and protection from extraterritorial laws. centron S3 Object Storage meets these requirements through certified infrastructure, consistent encryption in transit, access protection and hosting in Germany.

Yes. On video platforms, view statistics and user profiles are personal data, and where people are recognisable in the picture this also applies to the content itself. At centron, videos and access data remain in Germany, under a data processing agreement pursuant to Article 28 GDPR. Operations take place in data centres certified to ISO 27001 based on IT-Grundschutz; for ccloud³ / Managed Cloud there is an unqualified BSI C5:2020 Type 1 attestation. Details can be found in the Trust Center.

centron stands for fair, predictable prices with no hidden costs. Our cloud servers and managed servers offer flexible plans for start-ups and growing video platforms – billed by the hour, traffic included.
