30% to 60% Cloud Cost Savings.
One of the key benefits of your own infrastructure is its cost advantage at scale. With OpenMetal, your cloud benefits from the fundamental advantage of private infrastructure – you are leasing all the resources of the hardware and not just the virtual resources.
When you provision a VM you can provision the size you need, but during the time that VM is not spiking to consume the top level limit of the VM, those previously wasted resources are dynamically returned to you for your other VMs. You can raise performance, lower staff management time, and lower your cloud costs.
