December 2017 Summaries

Vultr has introduced its new Bare Metal product line, which offers dedicated servers without a virtualization layer, allowing users to deploy single-tenant physical servers with the convenience of Vultr's cloud orchestration. The platform provides direct hardware access, enabling users to manage real physical servers with ease, while incorporating cloud features such as hourly billing, API-driven deployment, and availability across multiple geographic regions. Initially available in Singapore, the service is set to expand to more locations soon. Vultr's bare metal servers allow for flexible resource management and can be configured via a user-friendly portal or API, with support for a wide range of operating systems, including Linux, Windows, and BSD. This addition enhances Vultr's offerings by combining the performance and security of dedicated hardware with the simplicity and automation of their cloud platform.
