What is a Bare Metal Server?
A bare metal server is a single-tenant, physical server made up of preconfigured and instantly-deployable resources. Since bare metal servers are single-tenant environments, the owner has full control over the server, and they can even choose how its resources are going to be used. Unlike shared hosting and VPS servers, the server owner does not share their hardware with other tenants.
