I wouldn't hold your breath for this. I think Hetzner wants to stick to compute offerings, they don't have the manpower to run managed services like object storage or databases.

I'm personally fine with this, if it allows them to continue offering such solid value.
Wasabi is a great, inexpensive object store for anyone who's looking for that. I've had a really good experience with them (we have a little over 80TB of data there), and have found their support to be top-notch especially when you consider the price.
+1 to Wasabi. They are the only reason I was able to launch my product which wouldn't have been feasible on S3 or other providers just based on the storage and the API cost.
They could probably even outsource that service to some storage solution provider. They just need to have the servers located on site at Hetzner.
It wouldn’t even needed to be integrated to their API and billing.
