A curated selection: Hosting in Europe on Windows with DDoS protection. We picked providers matching these criteria and sorted them by rating, uptime and real reviews.
What matters about this combination of criteria: European sites combine low latency to UA with GDPR compliance. Windows Server is needed for 1C, MS SQL, ASP.NET and .NET apps. DDoS protection filters attack traffic before it reaches the server.
Bottom line: for most projects in Ukraine the ideal VPS means NVMe storage, 99.9%+ uptime, a convenient panel and support in your language. Start with the ranking leaders above and compare them side by side.

Frequently asked questions
European data centres combine solid infrastructure, GDPR compliance and low latency to a Ukrainian audience (25–40 ms). It's the optimal balance of price, speed and stability.
Germany (Frankfurt) is Europe's largest internet hub with the best infrastructure. The Netherlands offers permissive law and proximity to UA. Poland is the cheapest option with low latency.
A Windows VPS is essential for apps that only run on Windows: 1C, MS SQL Server, ASP.NET, .NET software and corporate systems. For regular websites, Linux is better and cheaper.
With most providers, yes — the Windows Server licence is included in the plan price. Confirm the version (2019/2022) and licence type (Standard/Datacenter) before ordering.
Traffic passes through a filtering system that blocks attack packets before they reach the server. There's network-level (L3/L4 — volumetric attacks) and application-level (L7 — HTTP-flood).
It depends on the provider: basic protection usually covers attacks up to 10–100 Gbps. Stronger attacks need premium protection (Cloudflare, Stormwall) as a separate service.
