OpenMetal Hosted Private Cloud Deployment Speed

Q: How fast can OpenMetal deploy a Hosted Private Cloud cluster?

OpenMetal deploys a production-ready Hosted Private Cloud cluster in under 45 seconds using proprietary automation, delivering a fully configured OpenStack and Ceph environment.

The 45-second deployment includes a three-node cluster with OpenStack control plane services (Nova, Neutron, Cinder, Glance, Horizon), Ceph distributed storage across all nodes, VLAN-segmented private networking, and Day 2 monitoring. The cluster is API-accessible and ready to launch VMs immediately after deployment completes.

This speed applies to the standard cluster deployment path. Bare metal server deployments follow a different timeline: initial deployments are typically delivered via self-service or by the OpenMetal team within 24-48 business hours, with servers sourced from the supply chain. Custom configurations (RAM upgrades, TDX enablement, additional NVMe drives) may require additional lead time. Hosted Private Cloud clusters are available in Ashburn, Los Angeles, Amsterdam, and Singapore. For organizations evaluating OpenMetal, Proof of Concept clusters are available for testing workload fit, replication, and environment validation before committing to a production deployment.
