Frequently asked questions

Can I run gemma 2 9b it in the EU?

Yes. HostYourAI runs gemma 2 9b it on GPUs in European datacenters via vLLM. Prompts and outputs never leave the EU and there is no US cloud provider in the chain.

Is hosting gemma 2 9b it GDPR-compliant?

Yes. All processing happens inside the EU, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available and the subprocessor list is public. Open-source weights also mean: no training on your data.

How much does gemma 2 9b it cost?

gemma 2 9b it is available on request: through the shared EU router after a quick chat, or as your own dedicated GPU deployment billed per hour. Tell us your use case and we will set it up for you.

Is the API OpenAI-compatible?

Yes. You use the standard OpenAI SDKs with a custom base URL (https://hostyourai.com/api/v1). The Anthropic Messages API is supported as a drop-in as well.

[!Note] This model card is for the new versions of the Gemma 4 family optimized with Quantization-Aware Training (QAT), which allows preserving similar quality to bfloat16 while dramatically reducing the memory requirements to load the model. Four versions of the QAT checkpoints are available: Unquantized QAT checkpoints (Q40): Half-precision weights extracted from the QAT pipeline, ideal for custom downstream compilation and research. Available for Gemma 4 E2B, E4B, 12B, 26B A4B, and 31B, and their drafter models. GGUF (Q40): Ready-to-deploy formats for broad ecosystem compatibility. Availabl
