What’s New in OpenMetal v5
OpenMetal v5 is a generational platform update, not a cosmetic refresh.
Intel® Xeon® 6 (Granite Rapids)
Higher core counts per socket, stronger per-core performance, and improved power efficiency over prior generations, a more capable foundation for compute-intensive workloads.
DDR5-6400 memory across all SKUs
A significant jump in memory bandwidth and performance consistency, especially for virtualization-heavy and data-intensive environments.
High-endurance NVMe storage
Standardized on Micron 7500 MAX, selected for sustained performance and endurance under real production load: databases, virtualization, and write-intensive services.
Confidential computing, included
Every v5 system ships with TPM support and is built to support Intel® TDX / SGX where memory topology requirements are met. It is capability the hyperscalers typically charge a premium for, here as standard.
The v5 catalog represents a step change in what we’re able to deliver to customers. Intel’s Xeon 6000 P-series unlocks a new level of per-core performance, and pairing that with DDR5-6400 memory means customers running data-intensive workloads will see real-world gains from day one. We engineered this lineup to handle what’s coming next, not just what customers are running today.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is v5 available now?
v5 is available now in Ashburn, VA (US East), as bare metal or hosted private cloud. It can be pre-ordered for Los Angeles, Amsterdam, and Singapore.
How is v5 priced?
Fixed, transparent monthly pricing with no metered egress surprises. See full pricing in the catalog or talk to an account manager.

Hosted Private Cloud catalog >>
Can I order multiple systems?
Yes. Your account manager will confirm availability and lead times for larger deployments.
Can configurations be customized?
Memory and storage layouts can often be adjusted. Talk to your account manager about specific requirements.
Is this only for bare metal?
No. v5 deploys two ways: as single-tenant bare metal, or as a Hosted Private Cloud of three identical v5 servers hyper-converged on OpenStack and Ceph. Same hardware, your choice of model.
Do all v5 servers support confidential computing?
All ship with TPM. XL and Large bare metal servers support Intel TDX/SGX out of the box; Medium bare metal server support depends on memory topology, so ask your account manager.
