OpenMetal is doubling included public bandwidth across all hardware tiers at no additional cost. XXL and XL servers now include 4Gbps per server (up from 2Gbps), Large servers get 2Gbps (up from 1 Gbps), Medium servers get 1Gbps (up from 500Mbps), and Small servers receive 400Mbps (up from 200Mbps). The upgrade eliminates bandwidth constraints for high-traffic applications.

Hyperscalers like AWS and GCP block custom email services, pushing you to their metered APIs. Learn why this conflict of interest hurts your business and how to build a scalable, high-volume email platform on OpenMetal’s dedicated hardware with BYOIP, private networking, and no sending limits.

Hyperscalers lock you in by owning your IP addresses. Moving infrastructure means updating firewall rules, losing email reputation, and coordinating DNS changes across partners. BYOIP gives you control over your network identity. Learn why this matters for multi-region, hybrid, and enterprise workloads.

Discover how to architect multi-site high availability infrastructure that maintains continuous operation across geographic locations. This comprehensive guide covers OpenStack deployment patterns, Ceph storage replication, networking strategies, and cost-effective approaches to achieving five nines uptime.

Discover how OpenMetal’s strategically positioned data centers eliminate the “data tax” on globally distributed applications. Free east-west traffic between regions plus predictable 95th percentile bandwidth billing lets you architect for performance instead of cost avoidance, with typical savings of 30-60% versus public cloud.

While public clouds promise invisible networking, this abstraction creates hidden costs and performance limitations. Explore how transparent network architecture with predictable billing models like 95th percentile can dramatically reduce egress costs and improve performance for AI workloads, SaaS platforms, and hybrid cloud strategies.
