TrustScore 4.3 - Excellent Trustpilot
A bare metal server is a physical server dedicated entirely to a single tenant, meaning it’s not shared with other customers. This server provides direct access to the server’s hardware, allowing full control over the choice of operating system, hardware configurations, and applications. Unlike servers that operate on virtual machines, bare metal servers do not have a hypervisor layer, which gives users unmediated control of the physical resources.
Bare metal servers offer several key advantages:
Bare metal servers provide the non-virtualized, high-performance capabilities of dedicated hardware combined with the flexibility and scalability of cloud services. They typically come with the latest and greatest hardware, including the newest CPUs, high-speed RAM, and fast NVMe storage. Bare metal servers also offer more customization options, allowing you to specify your CPU, RAM, storage, and network configuration.
Dedicated servers focus on delivering reliable server behavior and enhanced security due to the complete isolation of resources. Dedicated servers use more standard, cost-effective hardware like SATA SSDs and Intel Xeon processors. They also have a more limited set of preconfigured options rather than full customization.
Another key difference is the pricing and provisioning model. Bare metal servers often offer a pay-as-you-go or on-demand pricing structure, allowing you to scale up resources temporarily when needed. Dedicated servers typically have a monthly or annual subscription plan.
Bare metal and dedicated servers differ significantly from virtual servers in several ways:
Bare metal servers offer dedicated hardware resources, providing high performance, enhanced security, and better control over the computing environment. They are well-suited for mission-critical applications, large-scale data processing, and highly regulated industries that require strict security measures. However, bare metal servers can be expensive, have limited scalability, and require more complex configuration and maintenance.
On the other hand, virtual machines leverage server virtualization to share physical resources across multiple tenants. VMs offer greater flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, making them a good choice for non-mission-critical applications, dynamic workloads, and businesses that require strict cost controls. However, VMs may experience lower performance efficiency due to resource sharing and can have reduced security compared to bare metal servers.
In bare metal servers, the choice between using CPUs (Central Processing Units) and GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) largely depends on the specific workload requirements:
Bare metal servers are suited for a variety of applications, especially where performance, security, and control are paramount:
To initially set up bare metal servers, the key steps are:
RedSwitches’ expertise and comprehensive server solutions can help you streamline this process and ensure a reliable, high-performing, and secure bare metal server environment.

RedSwitches offers server installation assistance for a variety of operating systems, including:
RedSwitches can help set up the operating system according to the customer’s requirements so they can quickly get their server up and running. RedSwitches also offers Intel- and AMD-based dedicated servers to suit different workload requirements.
To deploy a bare metal server at RedSwitches, the timeframe for server readiness typically varies based on the setup process and any customization requests. Generally, servers can be provisioned within a few hours to a day, but the exact time can differ. For RedSwitches, the servers are usually up and running in less than 4 hours, offering powerful and customizable dedicated servers optimized for SaaS development. Additionally, RedSwitches provides 24/7 technical support and monitoring to ensure the smooth operation of SaaS applications hosted on their servers.
RedSwitches offers bare metal servers with over 20 different locations across 4 continents. This lets you choose a server location closer to your customers, providing low latency and high-speed application connectivity. The specified server location for your bare metal server will depend on your requirements and preferences. RedSwitches has server locations in the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Hong Kong, and Singapore. When you sign up for a bare metal server with RedSwitches, you can select the location that best suits your needs, whether proximity to your target audience, compliance with local data regulations, or any other factors important to your business. RedSwitches’ global infrastructure ensures you can deploy your servers in the optimal location to deliver exceptional customer experiences.
Choosing between a bare metal server and a server running a hypervisor depends on your specific needs:
Yes, bare metal servers are excellent for gaming, especially for hosting multiplayer online games that demand high performance, low latency, and reliable connectivity. They provide the necessary resources and stability to handle the intensive workload of modern games, ensuring a smooth and immersive gaming experience for all players.
Bare metal servers are well-suited for IoT (Internet of Things) and computing projects that require robust processing power, stability, and security. For IoT, bare metal servers can handle the vast data throughput and processing needed for real-time data analysis and decision-making. They are also ideal for edge computing scenarios where processing needs to be done close to the data source to reduce latency.
A bare metal server’s hypervisor, also known as a Type 1 hypervisor, is a layer of software installed directly onto the server’s physical hardware without an underlying operating system. This hypervisor has direct access to the hardware resources, offering efficient management and control of virtual machines (VMs) created on the server. It is designed to maximize performance, making it ideal for environments where multiple virtualized operating systems must run simultaneously with minimal performance overhead.
Adding backup and restore capabilities to a bare metal server typically involves the following steps:
Test Restore Procedures: Regularly test the restore process to ensure that data can be effectively recovered after data loss eve
Yes, ESXi is a bare metal hypervisor. VMware’s enterprise software hypervisor installs directly on physical servers and partitions them into multiple virtual machines. ESXi effectively manages resources and is considered a Type 1 hypervisor, running directly on the hardware without an operating system.
Yes, VMware can run on bare metal through its ESXi hypervisor. VMware ESXi provides a robust platform for virtualization, allowing multiple virtual machines to operate on a single physical server, efficiently utilizing the server’s computing resources.
Yes, RedSwitches gives you full root access, also known as administrator-level access to your bare metal server. This allows you to control and customize the server to your specific needs. With root access, you can install any software, configure the server settings, and manage the server’s resources as required for your applications.
The typical timeframe for provisioning a bare metal server is less than 4 hours. RedSwitches can provision servers quickly, usually up and running in less than a day. The exact time can vary depending on customization requests, but RedSwitches is known for its fast server provisioning. Customers can expect their new bare metal server to be ready and available for use in a few hours in most cases. RedSwitches’ efficient provisioning process allows customers to deploy their applications and services on dedicated infrastructure without lengthy delays. This helps businesses scale their infrastructure rapidly to meet changing demands.
