Bare Metal Servers
The entire physical machine, dedicated to you — no virtualization layer, no neighbors.
A bare metal server is a single physical server rented entirely by one customer, with no hypervisor and no other tenants sharing the hardware. You get direct access to the full CPU, RAM, storage, and network capacity of the machine.
How it's different from VPS/VDS
- No virtualization overhead — every bit of performance goes to your workload
- Full hardware control — choose your own OS, kernel, and hypervisor if you want to run your own VMs on top
- No noisy neighbors — resources are never shared with another customer
- Best raw performance — ideal for databases, game servers, and compute-heavy workloads
When to choose bare metal
Bare metal makes sense when you need maximum, predictable performance — for large databases, high-traffic applications, GPU-based workloads, or when compliance requires that your data never sit on shared hardware.
Bare metal servers take slightly longer to provision than VPS/VDS since they're physical hardware, not instantly spun-up virtual instances.
