Compare Lumen Edge Bare Metal vs. OpenMetal

Enhance the performance of your applications using specialized Lumen® Bare Metal servers located on edge nodes, which are engineered to achieve latency levels of 5ms or less. When dealing with high-bandwidth, real-time tasks, any form of delay can be detrimental. The Edge Bare Metal solution provides adaptable access to a wide-ranging network of robust bare metal servers, all optimized for low latency and focused on enhancing security, performance, and management capabilities. Users can select from various operating systems and deployment models to suit their needs. This combination of container solutions and bare metal servers allows for a pay-as-you-go model with the ability to easily turn services on or off. With container bin packaging, hardware utilization becomes more efficient, offering versatile configurations for servers and storage. You have the freedom to choose an operating system, server size, and pricing structure that aligns with the demanding requirements of your compute-intensive applications. Furthermore, safeguard your data with dedicated physical servers that provide secure, single-tenant environments, customizable firewall policies, and fully encrypted local storage, ensuring comprehensive security and control. This approach not only enhances performance but also allows businesses to scale their infrastructure dynamically as needed.

OpenMetal reimagines Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) by delivering high-performance, OpenStack-powered private clouds, bare metal dedicated servers, and GPU clusters. Our platform is designed to scale with any organization, from agile startups to established enterprises. Historically, the power of a private cloud was gated by massive capital requirements and technical complexity. Because managing dedicated infrastructure demands specialized expertise and heavy hardware investment, it remained an exclusive tool for the world's largest corporations. OpenMetal changes that dynamic. We provide the sovereignty and agility of a private environment without the traditional burdens of manual construction or maintenance. -Rapid Deployment: Go live in as little as 45 seconds. -Full Control: Manage your own dedicated infrastructure immediately. -Accessibility: High-level cloud technology tailored for budgets of all sizes. We view open source not just as a software model, but as a global engine for progress. By fostering international collaboration and collective innovation, open source empowers individuals to build upon existing successes to create something better for everyone. Our goal is to streamline the path to open-source adoption. By removing technical friction, we enable teams and individuals to focus on what matters: contributing to the community and driving the future of IT.
