Scope verdict

Non-European controlled

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

Exoscale Object Storage is the S3 compatible object storage service of the Swiss cloud platform Exoscale. It has a standard tier and a cheaper archival tier for cold data, and it works with the usual S3 clients and libraries.

Data is kept in European zones in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Bulgaria and Croatia, so you choose the country your objects live in. That makes it a European alternative for backups, media libraries and data lakes that should not sit with an American provider.

Pricing

Standard storage costs 0.00002750 EUR per GB per hour and archival storage 0.00000626 EUR per GB per hour. Incoming traffic is free and outgoing traffic costs 0.02 EUR per GB.

Why this matters

Published MX records route incoming business email through Google Workspace. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.

Mail-signing setup

Google Workspace

Non-European provider

TXT google._domainkey DKIM key published

A provider-specific DKIM record is published for Google Workspace. This shows configured mail-signing infrastructure, but not that every message currently uses it.

Current DNS record ↗Provider setup guide ↗

This is a targeted check, not a complete zone inventory. Generic Google and Microsoft verification tokens are ignored because they do not prove product use or a data flow. DNS normally cannot list arbitrary subdomains or customer-chosen DKIM selectors, including Salesforce selectors. Missing signals are not proof that a provider is unused.
