Account holder confirmed 2026-08-15 that Host Europe offers no fully managed S3
and no API to provision storage. That is a blocking answer, which T02's
acceptance criterion permits alongside evidence and unknown.
- host-europe-cloud-storage: blocked-account-confirmation -> not-offered, with
provenance recorded as account-holder knowledge rather than vendor-written
confirmation. The 2020 published specification describes nothing currently
orderable.
- T02 done: no acceptance requirement is blank for any provider.
- T01 done: the A/B/C comparison was never missing a leg. With no managed S3 to
price, Host Europe's real form is self-managed Garage on their VMs, already
priced from the public catalogue at EUR 335.77/month for 3 nodes — roughly 5x
the chosen Scaleway option, and it fails closed at month 12 when base demand
(458 GB) exceeds the 400 GB usable capacity.
The missing evidence would not have changed the decision; it strengthens it.
The 2026-08-10 due-diligence matrix and the approved optimization case are
deliberately not rewritten. A decision record documents what was known when the
decision was made; the new evidence document is the supersession.
"No provisioning API" is filed as a procurement-facility fact: any Host Europe
resource is manually provisioned, which is RESOURCE-WP-0005 and RAIL-HO-WP-0008
territory, not a pricing question.
RESOURCE-WP-0002 is finished: all seven tasks done. 136 tests pass.
