European cloud provider OVHcloud has revealed the next generation of its bare metal dedicated servers.

The Bare Metal 2026 generation is built using AMD's Ryzen and Epyc processors.

The Bare Metal 2026 offerings include Rise 2026, designed for "intensive workloads, web environments, and light virtualization" which use AMD Ryzen or Epyc x86 processors built on the Zen 5 microarchitecture; Game 2026 which is designed for gaming environments and built on the AMD Ryzen 9000 X3D series x86 processors; Advance 2026 which is ideal for validation nodes or blockchain system components and powered by AMD Epyc 4005 x86 processors with up to 16 cores/32 threads with EEC DDR5 memory; and Scale 2026 which is ideal for big data, analytics, or high performance computing.

Scale 2026 is specifically optimized for the most demanding workloads, and can be deployed in three availability zone configurations. The servers are built on AMD Epyc 9005 series x86 processors, with up to 384 cores/768 threads and up to 3TB of ECC DDR5 memory. Storage options can be configured with up to 98TB of NVMe drives.

All are available in Europe and Canada, while Advance and Scale are also in the US and APAC.

The Bare Metal 2026 offerings also benefit from network connection with a public bandwidth between 1 and 5 Gbps, and private bandwidth up to 50 Gbps.

Yaniv Fdida, chief product & technology officer, OVHcloud, said: “The new generation of Bare Metal 2026 servers is not only a technological upgrade, it’s a direct response to the daily challenges our customers face. Powered by the latest AMD processors, they deliver greater performance, stability, and predictability without compromising energy efficiency. At the heart of our promise towards customers lies the ability to move faster, with peace of mind, and with full control over their infrastructure.”

The Europe-based OVHcloud operates globally, and the company has more than 500,000 servers within 46 data centers across four continents. In the company's most recent quarterly earnings call, OVH posted a revenue of €275.3 million ($320m), up six percent Year-on-Year (YoY). CEO Octave Klaba at the time said that it was working towards a “new target of €2 billion ($2.33bn) in revenue,” but the timeline associated with this remains unclear.

Earlier this month, OVH and OpenNebula revealed that they were partnering on a sovereign cloud offering.
