Bare Metal Server (BMS)

Bare Metal Server (BMS)

Bare Metal Server (BMS) provides dedicated physical servers in single-tenant environments. It provides excellent computing performance and data security for core databases, key application systems, and high performance computing. It also offers the high scalability of a cloud-based service. You can buy BMSs directly or in a DeC as you need.

Application Scenarios

Core Database

Multiple BMS flavors are available, and shared EVS disks can be attached automatically to provide the performance and security required by core databases.

Advantages

  • Cluster Deployment

    An EVS disk can be attached to multiple BMSs, enabling cluster-based application deployment.

  • Large Capacity

    A BMS can have multiple EVS disks attached, each as large as 32 TB. EVS disk capacity can be expanded as needed and you only pay for what you use.

  • High Reliability

    Three-copy backup ensures high data durability.

Big Data

BMSs can be equipped with 128 GB of memory and 32 TB local disks in addition to EVS disks for scenarios involving large data volumes, fast data exchange, and elastic scaling.

Advantages

  • Big Data-specific

    Using dedicated local disks for big data analysis provides better BMS performance.

  • High Performance

    BMS provides high-speed connectivity between data nodes, with no loss in performance due to virtualization.

  • Convenience

    BMSs can be provisioned in five minutes, and full lifecycle management is available.
