Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Bare Metal Servers provide customers with isolation, visibility, and control through dedicated compute instances. The servers support applications that require high core count, large memory, and high bandwidth - with scaling up to 160 cores ( the largest in the industry), 2TB of RAM and up to 1PB of block storage. Customers can build cloud environments on Oracle bare metal servers with significant performance improvements over other publicor on-premises data centers. OCI meets 90% of required Gartner requirements criteria, including 100% scores for compute, storage, networking, and software infrastructure. OCI's new capabilities range from compute instances and block volumes that can dynamically scale based on demand, to powerful NVIDIA GPU instances. Respondents realized $5 million per year in productivity gains r IT staff, risk mitigation, business productivity gains, and IT cost reduction. With bare metal servers, customers can run heavy, latency-sensitive, specialized, traditional, and high-performance workloads directly on dedicated server hardwarejust like you would on- Premises would do. Bare metal instances are ideal for workloads that need to run in non-virtualized environments. Other cloud providers install agents and additional software, but at Oracle we don't install software on bare metal machines increased security and performance, and an environment that provides consistency in responding to application calls. Bare metal instances are managed in a secure virtual cloud network (VCN) where security, isolation, and governance features are provided to customers by default. The network can be easily expanded to include neighboring Oracle Cloud I nfrastructure services. Customers can leverage the latest generation hardwarewithout the overhead of virtualizationto ensure high performance for the most demanding workloads.Local all-flash storage with adjacent high-performance block storage provides the ideal platform for IOPS-intensive workloads. The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure HPC platform includes bare metal compute instances, low-latency (RDMA-based) clustered networks running over a converged Ethernet (RoCE), high-performance storage solutions and file systems, network traffic isolation, and tools customers need to seamlessly automate and execute tasks in the cloud. Layer 2 network virtualization ensures isolation so customer workloads are not impacted by other customer activities. Because we compute, Network or storage resources are not overloaded, customers can use ge always expect maximum performance, including all bare metal servers. Adjust your workload optimally to the instance types:
Processors from industry leaders give you optimal performance based on your workload requirements:

Oracle Cloud network infrastructure is fast, predictable, and cost-effective. It offers the lowest data egress fees of any major cloud service provider (including 10 TB free). For customers with heavy data transfer requirements, this translates to a huge cost advantage. The hassle-free and globally consistent Oracle Cloud Storage pricing does not include provisioning fees for standard usage IOPS. This eliminates the need to use complex pricing formulas to forecast costs. Compute, storage, database, and infrastructure are priced the same across the world. Prevent attacks with isolated network virtualization Customer tenants. A fundamental element of the security-centric architecture of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is that it stops malware with a purpose-built SmartNIC that isolates and virtualizes the network. Using easy-to-define policies ments that are aligned to logical user and resource groups, you can not only control who has access to the resources of the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. You can also specify which resources can be accessed and via which access mode. Customers can Manage identities and access using existing organizational hierarchies and federated directory services such as Microsoft, Okta, or other SAML directory providers.Reduce the risk of firmware-based attacks on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure customer tenants with a trusted custom and hardware-based technology that allows the firmware to be erased and reinstalled each time a new server is provisioned or a new customer tenant is established. Protect applications from malicious or unwanted web traffic with a cloud-based and PCI-compliant global web application firewall (WAF).By combining threat intelligence with consistent rule enforcement, this service strengthens your defenses and protects internet-facing application servers.Centrally manage and control the Encryption keys and secret credentials used to protect corporate data and resource access. Security for both is secured in FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) 140-2 Level 3 certified hardware security module (HSM). Users can further control permissions for individual keys and vaults with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity and Access Management and monitor the lifecycle of keys with Oracle Audit to address advanced compliance requirements. Oracle supports a comprehensive Choice of operating systems based on Microsoft Windows Server and Enterprise Linux such as Oracle Linux, CentOS, Ubuntu and many others.Oracle Autonomous Linux is a free, autonomous operating system environment that reduces complexity and human error, as well as cost savings, security and availability for Increased Oracle Cloud customers.

Customers can run their own operating systems and hypervisors on Oracle Compute instances and use the same image across configuration sizes. Developers building applications using containers can leverage a highly available, Oracle-managed private container registry service to store and share container images .Push and pull Docker images in and out of the registry using the Docker V2 API and the standard Docker command-line interface (CLI).Images can be used directly as part of a Kubernetes deployment strategy.Developers looking to cloud Building native applications can use our managed Kubernetes service to run high-availability clusters with the control and security businesses need. Users can eliminate cluster management and administrative overhead while automatically getting the latest Kubernetes updates and running the cloud native e Computing Foundation (CNCF) Keeping pace. Functions as a Service (FaaS) for developers to run serverless applications that integrate with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle Cloud applications, and third-party services. Ensure developer efficiency and access to the open source Fn project community.ISVs can build and run their applications on OCI because OCI offers high performance.OCI offers a number of tools for migrating Oracle Applications, such as E-Business Suite, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, PeopleSoft, Siebel, and Hyperion. Machine learning labs and startups can use bare-metal servers with NVIDIA GPUs and Remote Direct Memory Access clustering to train and tune models faster and more economically. Organizations can solve complex math and science problems for a variety of HPC use cases in manufacturing, life sciences, financial services, and more Save up to 90% on total cost of ownership by running Cisco Tetration on Oracle Cloud instead of on-premises
