In this video from SC18 in Dallas, Taylor Newill from Oracle describes the company's new Bare Metal for HPC on top of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Advantages include:
Performance. Bare metal servers, without a hypervisor, deliver uncompromising and consistent performance. Instances with Intel XEON and AMD EPYC processors, the latest generation NVMe SSDs, providing millions of IOPS and very low latency, are ideal for I/O intensive web applications, the most demanding big data workloads, and Oracle Database.
Elastic and On-Demand Compute. True on-demand bare metal instances deliver elasticity for your workloads. Start, terminate, and monitor bare metal instances, and VMs, as needed, using the console, APIs, or SDKs.
Security and Control. Bare metal instance isolation and dedicated access provide unparalleled visibility and control.
