European alternatives to AWS Amplify Hosting in 2026
Where to host a Next.js or React app in Europe instead of AWS Amplify: six providers compared on rendering support, pricing model, company and gaps.
If your Amplify app is a server-rendered Next.js site, Eurobase is a close match: it builds from Git and runs Next.js on European infrastructure for a flat €10 or €20 a month. If you need a managed database or ISO 27001 today, look at Clever Cloud or Scalingo. If your React app builds to static files, statichost.eu from Sweden is a small, focused option, while Sliplane and Scaleway fit teams that prefer to ship a container.
The feature most likely to go missing when you leave Amplify is per-pull-request previews. Scalingo has them through Review Apps, but the other options below don't yet, Eurobase included.
Amplify and its European alternatives at a glance
| Platform | Company | Next.js server rendering | Pricing model | Main gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AWS Amplify | Amazon Web Services, EMEA contract under Luxembourg law | Yes | Usage only, in US dollars | US-owned provider |
| Eurobase | Warsaw, Poland | Yes, on V8 isolates | Free, then €10 a month + VAT | No preview deployments or managed Postgres |
| Clever Cloud | France | As a Node.js app | Billed by the second, with a spending cap | No flat monthly plan |
| Scalingo | France | Yes, Next.js is listed | €7.20 a month for 256 MB, excl. VAT | Each container and database billed separately |
| statichost.eu | Stockholm, Sweden | No, static files only | Free for 1 site, then €9 a month | No server code at all |
| Sliplane | Berlin, Germany | As a Docker container | From €9 per server, excl. VAT | You run the container setup |
| Scaleway Serverless Containers | France | As a container | Free tier, then billed by use | No Git-to-production workflow |
Prices are from each provider's own page, checked on 9 and 10 November 2026.
What to check before you leave Amplify
- Does your app render on the server? A React app built with Vite is just files, and any static host will do. A Next.js app using server components, route handlers or ISR needs a platform that runs code.
- Which Next.js features you rely on. Image optimization, middleware and incremental rendering behave differently on each host.
- How the bill grows. Amplify charges $0.01 per build minute, $0.15 per GB served and $0.30 per million server-rendered requests once the free tier ends. A flat plan swaps that for limits.
- Who your contract is with. European customers of AWS sign with Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL, a Luxembourg entity, but the parent is a US company. If you need an EU-owned provider, the region you pick won't settle it.
- Previews and branches. Amplify gives each pull request a web preview, up to 50 branches per app. Check whether your review process depends on that.
1. Eurobase
Eurobase deploys from GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Forgejo or Gitea. It detects Next.js, builds it with OpenNext and runs it on V8 isolates, with the App Router, server rendering, route handlers, middleware and ISR. React Router and TanStack Start apps run the same way, and a plain React build is served as a static site. Coding agents can deploy through its MCP server and CLI.
- Best for: Next.js and React apps that should stay on European infrastructure at a price you know in advance.
- Price: a Free plan, then Starter at €10 and Pro at €20 a month + VAT for the whole workspace. There are no usage charges today: work over a limit is refused, apps on V8 isolates and Functions stop until the monthly reset, and containers and static sites keep serving.
- Company: a business registered in Warsaw, Poland, on European infrastructure operated by Scaleway, a French provider.
- What it lacks: preview deployments, managed Postgres, MySQL or Redis, and Dockerfile builds.
next/imageserves images at their original size. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 are in progress, not held.
2. Clever Cloud
Clever Cloud is a French platform that deploys on a Git push. It lists Node.js and static applications among its runtimes and states ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and Health Data Hosting certification.
- Best for: teams that want add-ons such as databases next to the app, from a certified provider.
- Price: usage-based and billed by the second, with a maximum spend you set yourself. New accounts get free credits with no card.
- What it lacks: a Next.js-specific setup on its site, and a fixed monthly price. Its pricing page also names partner infrastructure, such as Oracle Cloud and regions outside Europe, so pick the region with care.
3. Scalingo
Scalingo is a Heroku-style platform from France that lists Next.js among its frameworks. It's ISO 27001 certified, with a Health Data Hosting option and a SecNumCloud region built on Outscale. Its Review Apps create an app for each new pull or merge request.
- Best for: a Next.js app with a database and pull request previews, or a French regulated workload.
- Price: containers from €7.20 a month for 256 MB and €14.40 for 512 MB in the standard region, estimated over 30 days, excl. VAT. Databases start at €7.20 a month. A 30-day free trial is available.
- What it lacks: one price for the whole app, since every container and database is billed on its own.
4. statichost.eu
statichost.eu is a static site host run from Stockholm, Sweden. It builds from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Forgejo, SourceHut or Azure DevOps, and it says every layer from Git deploy to CDN runs on European infrastructure owned by European companies. Next.js, Astro, Nuxt and Hugo are among the tools it lists.
- Best for: a React or Next.js app that builds to static files.
- Price: Hobby is free for 1 site with 10 GB of bandwidth and 100 build minutes. Starter is €9 a month with 500 GB, Professional is €49 a month with 1 TB, then €1 per extra 10 GB. The page doesn't say whether VAT is included.
- What it lacks: server rendering, API routes and functions. Branch and pull request previews are marked as coming soon.
5. Sliplane
Sliplane, headquartered in Berlin, detects your framework automatically, and it can also build from a Dockerfile or run a Docker image. You rent a server and run as many services on it as fit.
- Best for: teams comfortable with a Dockerfile who want a fixed price per server.
- Price: from €9 for 1 vCPU and 1 GB of RAM, excl. VAT. A demo server is free for 48 hours.
- What it lacks: Next.js-specific handling. If the data must stay in Europe, create the server in a European location, since the US and Singapore are offered too.
6. Scaleway Serverless Containers
Scaleway is a French cloud provider. Serverless Containers run an image you build, scaling from zero, in Paris, Amsterdam, Warsaw or Milan.
- Best for: teams that already package Next.js as a container and want to pay by use.
- Price: 400,000 GB-s of memory and 200,000 vCPU-s free each month, then €0.20 per 100,000 GB-s and €1 per 100,000 vCPU-s.
- What it lacks: the Amplify-style flow from Git push to live URL. You build the image and wire up the pipeline yourself.
How to choose
- Pick Eurobase for a server-rendered Next.js or React app at a flat euro price on European infrastructure.
- Pick Clever Cloud or Scalingo when the app needs a managed database or a certified provider now.
- Pick statichost.eu when the build output is only HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
- Pick Sliplane or Scaleway when you'd rather own the container than rely on framework detection.
- Stay on AWS Amplify if other AWS services are central to how you work, and an EU-owned provider isn't required. For pull request previews in Europe, look at Scalingo's Review Apps.
Moving an app off Amplify
- Copy the build settings and environment variables from the Amplify console.
- Note your redirects, rewrites and custom headers, since each host configures them differently.
- Deploy the same branch on the new platform and test it on the default URL.
- Shorten the DNS TTL a day ahead so the switch spreads quickly, then move your domain's records to the new host.
- Delete the Amplify app once traffic has moved, since stored files bill until you do.

Frequently asked questions
Is AWS Amplify GDPR compliant if I pick a European region?
The region decides where your app is built and stored, and the content is served from the AWS global CDN. Your contract is with Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL, but AWS is US-owned. A region alone doesn't make the provider European. Read more in EU region vs EU company.
Can I host a server-rendered Next.js app in Europe without managing servers?
Yes. Eurobase runs Next.js on V8 isolates and Scalingo runs it in a managed container, both deployed from Git. Clever Cloud runs it as a Node.js app.
What's the cheapest way to host a static React app in Europe?
Eurobase and statichost.eu both have free plans with limits for static sites. statichost.eu's paid Starter plan is €9 a month, and Eurobase's is €10 a month + VAT for the whole workspace.
Which of these has pull request previews like Amplify?
Scalingo does, through Review Apps, which create an app for each new pull or merge request. statichost.eu lists previews as coming soon, and Eurobase deploys one branch per project.
How much does Amplify Hosting cost after the free tier?
$0.01 per standard build minute, $0.023 per GB stored a month, $0.15 per GB served, $0.30 per million server-rendered requests and $0.20 per GB-hour of request duration. Its firewall adds $15 a month per app.
