IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers - Overview - Denmark

Bare Metal dedicated servers for business

What are bare metal dedicated servers?

Bare metal servers provide users with sole access to the entire server. Unlike a virtual server with multiple tenants, the pure bare metal server is single tenant and offered without a hypervisor, thereby eliminating the “noisy neighbor” effect and any performance “tax” from the hypervisor. Bare metal servers are dedicated servers that can be acquired in a preconfigured form or custom-configured to exact specifications.
