Deploying Containers on Bare Metal

Need extreme performance or physical separation for your workloads? Cycle enables seamless deployments to bare metal infrastructure, whether your metal is on-premises, colo, or from a bare metal cloud provider.

Build Your Own Private Cloud

The Benefits of Bare Metal

Lose the Virtualization Overhead

Raw Performance

Bare metal deployments offer unmatched performance by allowing your applications to run directly on hardware. This provides optimal speed and efficiency for demanding workloads.

Maximum Security for Workloads

Physical Isolation

With bare metal, your workloads are fully isolated from others, providing a secure and dedicated environment. This physical separation reduces the risk of interference or vulnerabilities from shared infrastructure.

Utilize All Your Resources

Increased Application Density

Maximize the number of applications running on your hardware with bare metal's efficient resource usage. This leads to higher application density and improved cost-effectiveness.

Run Anywhere

The Cycle Difference

Cycle was purpose built to consume raw compute. This approach positions Cycle users with the ability to quickly extend their cloud with bare metal or build a custom private cloud from scratch. It no longer matters what type of x86 infrastructure you're adding, because with Cycle it all just works.

Effortless Networking

As servers are added to clusters, Cycle automatically performs a number of reachability tests to configure, secure, and scale network connections between nodes.
Automatic Updates

New platform features, kernel updates, and more -- Cycle ensures your nodes are always up-to-date.
Simplified Provisioning

Cycle streamlines server deployment with a standardized API, eliminating many of the manual configuration steps typically involved in provisioning new bare metal infrastructure.
Purpose-Built Operating System

CycleOS, a lightweight operating system, was purpose-built for running container-based applications while retaining the smallest potential attack surface.

Unify Your Compute Layer

Composable Infrastructure

With the release of virtual providers Cycle users have gained access to a whole new world of composability when it comes to bare metal. Any internet accessible x86 machine can now be joined into a cluster with just an iso burned to a thumb drive.

Plug and play on any x86 node.
Automatic updates out of the box.
Automated networking with layer 2 & 3 SDN extensibility.
No YAML configuration mess.

Less to Learn, More to See

One Control Plane, Better Visibility.

Cycle's Portal gives teams a clear view of both your infrastructure and containers, regardless of where they're deployed.

Provision infrastructure, create environments, deploy containers, and more. Gain visibility into everyting from resource usage to traffic flows, without requiring third party integrations.

The Cycle platform also includes a powerful API, along with automation pipelines, enabling teams to build the workflows they desire.
