01 / Bare Metal

All yours.
Down to the metal.

A physical machine, dedicated to your workload. Bring compute, memory and storage together for applications that need their own space.

01

Make room for the heavy work.

Large datasets. Sustained processing. Applications with a demanding working set. Dedicated hardware gives you a physical resource boundary and the freedom to plan the machine as a whole.

02

Build around the bottleneck.

Tell us where the pressure sits: CPU throughput, memory, disk latency or network traffic. We will use that picture to specify the processor, memory and storage layout—and confirm the hardware available in your chosen location.

03

Your stack. A clear division of work.

Keep the operating system and applications in your hands, or discuss the administration you want us to take on. Hardware support and any management work are set out in your order, so everyone knows their part.

04

Think beyond day one.

Remote access, maintenance, backup destinations and a future migration all deserve a place in the plan. Agree the network allowances, deployment timing and any licences or additional IP addresses before the machine goes live.

Before you begin

Before you
make your move.

Can I specify the hardware?+

Yes. Share the processor, memory and storage layout you have in mind, or describe the workload and we can build the specification together. The proposal confirms the available components and lead time.

Who manages the server?+

Your order sets out the management scope. Tell us which operating system, monitoring, patching or application tasks you want covered so the division of work is clear.

How should I approach backups?+

Include the data, retention and restore requirements in your brief. Backups are a separately defined part of the service and are included when stated in your order.

The next step

Tell us what the
server needs to do.

Share the workload, preferred location and hardware requirements. We will use them to prepare a configuration and confirm price and timing.
