The primary benefits of bare metal servers are based on the access that end users have to hardware resources. The advantages of this approach include the following:
Enhanced physical isolation which offers security and regulatory benefits
Greater processing power
Complete control of their software stack
More consistent disk and network I/O performance
Greater quality of service (QoS) by eliminating the noisy neighbor phenomenon
Imaging capability for creating a seamless experience when moving and scaling workloads
Taken together, bare metal servers have an important role in the infrastructure mix for many companies due to their unique combination of performance and control. \r
