What are Bare-Metal Clouds?

Bare-Metal Clouds are cloud services that provide access to physical, dedicated servers—without a virtualization layer. Unlike traditional cloud instances that run on shared hardware using virtual machines, bare-metal servers offer full control over the hardware, better performance, and more predictable resource usage. They are ideal for workloads that require high performance, low latency, or specific hardware configurations (e.g., GPU-intensive tasks, large databases). Bare-metal clouds combine the flexibility and scalability of cloud infrastructure with the power of dedicated hardware. This makes them especially attractive for enterprises needing both control and cloud-like agility.
