Organizations are expanding compute capacity as data volumes and processing requirements continue growing. Many companies seeking infrastructure control and cost optimization are turning to bare metal solutions that eliminate the overhead and expense of virtualization layers and managed services included in traditional cloud offerings. To determine the value of alternative bare metal cloud infrastructure providers, Nucleus interviewed customers of OVHcloud. Customers interviewed by Nucleus reported cost reductions of up to 70 percent compared to major cloud providers while maintaining service quality and reliability. Along with the bare metal cost savings, customers transitioned from high variable costs to predominantly fixed monthly costs, enabling predictable budgeting and capacity planning. Organizations with specialized computing requirements, such as those needing confidential computing capabilities or custom operating systems, chose OVHcloud for access to specific hardware configurations that few providers offered at the time. Through its bare metal offerings, predictable pricing model, and global infrastructure, OVHcloud enables organizations to maintain infrastructure control, avoid vendor lock-in, and reduce operational costs.
