Bare Metal.

Dedicated hardware across US and European colocation partners. Procurement, racking, networking, and ongoing operations. No virtualization overhead -- raw performance for workloads that need it.

Dedicated hardware procurement, racking, networking, and operations at colocation partners in the US and Europe. Single-tenant servers with no noisy-neighbor problems, no hypervisor overhead, and full control over the hardware layer.

What we operate on bare metal

When we recommend bare metal

For database workloads where I/O performance matters more than elasticity, for GPU inference clusters, for regulated workloads requiring single-tenant compute, and for environments where public cloud egress costs make bare metal cheaper at scale.

Single-tenant servers with no noisy neighbors, no hypervisor overhead, and full control of the hardware layer, procured and operated for you.

Why teams choose Cobham for bare metal

Our model on Bare Metal

You own the account. We operate it.

We are platform-agnostic. We recommend Bare Metal when it is the right fit for cost, compliance, or performance -- not because we have a reseller agreement. You hold the cloud account and we charge a flat engineering retainer.

01

No reseller margin

Your cloud bill is between you and Bare Metal. We never touch the invoice or add a markup.

02

Flat engineering retainer

One monthly rate for the full scope of operations. Monitoring, patching, incident response, and cost reviews included.

03

30-day cancellation

Cancel any retainer with 30 days written notice. We hand off runbooks, IaC, and documentation -- you keep everything.

Common questions

Frequently asked.

How long does server procurement take?
Standard configurations at our colocation partners are typically available within 2 to 5 business days. Custom configurations requiring specialized hardware can take 2 to 4 weeks. We clarify lead times during scoping.
What colocation facilities do you work with?
Equinix and CoreSite in the US. Hetzner and OVHcloud colocation in Europe. For specific facility requirements (carrier access, power density, compliance certifications), we identify the right partner during scoping.
What happens if hardware fails?
Hardware failure response is part of every bare metal retainer. We have spare parts relationships at partner facilities and documented escalation paths for next-business-day hardware replacement on critical systems.
