Our team has worked diligently this year to establish our initial European footprint and now expand it into its permanent home! We’re proud to announce that our new EU data center location in Amsterdam is up and operational.

We’re doubly proud to announce that our opening round of EU hardware inventory is sold out! Want to get on the restock pre-order list? Just reply to this email or contact an OpenMetal consultant. Hurry though, as spots are being reserved faster than we can make them available.

Boasting N+1 UPS power, N+1 cooling, and advanced alarm and monitoring systems, it operates on 100% renewable energy.

Spot Pricing Program Launch

By popular demand, we’ve introduced a new Spot Pricing program to our on-demand cloud offerings!

With OpenMetal Spot Hardware Pricing, you get access to production ready three-server hyper-converged Private Cloud Cores built on OpenStack and Ceph. These cores can be purchased independently or seamlessly integrated with your existing Cloud Cores in the OpenMetal Cloud, providing you with a flexible and robust cloud computing experience.

Unlike Spot Instances and Spot Virtual Machines offered by hyperscalers, which are only ideal for interruptible workloads and subject to abrupt recall or cancellation, OpenMetal Spot Hardware is perfect for both interruptible and planned workloads. Enjoy uninterrupted access for 30 days at a time, and relax knowing that recalls are only made with a generous 2-week notice.
