So, what is a Bare
Metal Server?

Bare Metal Servers give you the lightning-fast performance of a dedicated server with resources that are exclusively yours and the added bonus of down-to-the-minute billing that you’d normally get with cloud servers.

Selected servers come free with 10Gbps private bandwidth, with the option to upgrade public bandwidth too with our Premium Bandwidth add-on! Plus, the flexible billing means you can start, stop and pause your server when you need to – ideal, right?
