Bare Metal & Colocation
13 providers in this category.
Bare-metal providers rent dedicated physical servers with no hypervisor and no neighbors: all cores, memory, and disks belong to one tenant. Colocation goes further, housing your own hardware in their datacenter. Both suit steady, performance-critical workloads where consistency beats elasticity. Weigh server configurability, provisioning speed, network quality, and remote-management access.
