Hi,
Could someone confirm if the bare metal instances are in fact a physical server with no virtualisation at all? Also could you confirm exactly what processors are in the boxes please?
Kind Regards,
Dave
Hi Dave,
Bare metal is physical machine offered which does not come with any VM Ware software we can bring our own OS image or VMware or KVM or Hyper V image.
Below link show how to bring I your own image, below link also shows features of Baremetal cloud.

Yes they are really bare metal machines.
nowadays you can use vm's there as well, but you can really have the physical machines to you disposal as well.
