Q: Should I use AWS Dublin or Adobe Commerce Cloud Dublin?

Both terminate in Dublin — the difference is operational:AWS Dublin (eu-west-1) — raw AWS account, you (or we) manage EC2 / RDS / ElastiCache / S3 / CloudFront. Cheapest at scale (€200–800 /mo for SMB), full control. Best for stores with a DevOps person or a managed-services partner.Adobe Commerce Cloud (Pro on AWS Dublin) — managed Magento hosting from Adobe, with Fastly CDN baked in, ECE-Tools deploy pipeline, 24/7 Adobe support. €25k+ /yr but no infrastructure-management overhead. Locks you to Adobe Commerce.Hyvä Cloud / Cloudways Dublin / Hetzner Helsinki — good middle ground for €500k–€5M stores at €200–800 /mo.For Irish DTC under €5M revenue we usually recommend AWS Dublin + a managed-services retainer — you keep the cost low and the data inside the EU.
