What is OpenMetal On-Demand Private Cloud?

The world's first truly on-demand OpenStack private cloud platform and automated bare metal. Launch a production-ready cloud in just 45 seconds – without the expensive hardware investment or steep learning curve. Reduce costs and empower your team with secure, reliable, on-demand dedicated cloud infrastructure. Many organizations are stuck building and maintaining their own private clouds, or using a mega-cloud provider. However, building your own private cloud is complex and expensive, and the big cloud providers can be costly and inflexible. We provide an open source alternative with lower costs, more transparency and control, and greater flexibility, all tailored to your unique needs.
