Q: How much does an OpenMetal XL v4 bare metal server cost?
The OpenMetal XL v4 bare metal server is billed at a fixed monthly rate with no per-VM fees, no per-socket licensing, and no per-GB egress charges on private traffic. Pricing is available through the OpenMetal deployment calculator or by contacting the sales team.
The XL v4 monthly rate covers the full hardware allocation: dual Intel Xeon Gold 6530 processors, 1TB DDR5 4800MHz RAM, 4x Micron 7500 MAX 6.4TB NVMe data drives, 2x 960GB boot drives in RAID 1, 20Gbps private LACP network, and 6Gbps public uplink. IPMI console access, DDoS protection, and on-site hardware support are included — there are no add-on charges for these operational basics.
Public egress is billed on the 95th-percentile model, not per gigabyte. Workloads that produce bursty outbound traffic — API endpoints, batch exports, scheduled replication — do not accumulate egress charges for short burst periods. Only sustained throughput at the 95th percentile affects the egress line item. This makes the XL v4 predictable for high-egress workloads that would generate large per-GB bills on AWS or GCP.
Price locks up to five years are available, making long-term capacity planning straightforward against a fixed infrastructure cost. Ramp pricing is available for teams running parallel environments during a migration from VMware or another provider.
