This document provides an overview of OVH's bare metal server ranges from their beginning in 1985 to their current offerings. It discusses the evolution of OVH's infrastructure from Octave's first computer to their current 300,000+ servers. The document then summarizes OVH's current bare metal server products - RISE, ADVANCE, INFRASTRUCTURE, HG, and GAME - outlining the key specs and features of each range. It also discusses OVH Link Aggregation and what it means for dedicated servers to be "cloud ready".

12. What Does Being « Cloud Ready » Mean ?
Not all Bare Metal providers are equals
Network capacity 01
You need high capacity
network to scale and allow
any workload, including
anti DDoS protection.
SLAs 02
Unmetered Traffic 03
Certification 04
You need guaranteed
network bandwidth and
servers availability
commitment through SLA
at 99,99% if needed.
You need unmetered
traffic to reduce your bills
and secure your workloads
with a predictive cost as
your infrastructure grows.
You need ISO27001& HDS
certification and a
commitment to external audit
processes to enforce high
quality standards.

16. Key points
➢ Limited stock
➢ Still a choice of SATA3 or SSD or NVMe for
capacity/speed preference
➢ Public Bandwidth 500Mbps - Unlimited &
unmetered traffic + options
➢ No vRack private network but not
required for standalone server
➢ SLA 99,90%
RISE Jumpstart your standalone server
29. OVH Link Aggregation
Aggregate your network cards and make your network links redundant. This
means that if one link goes down, traffic is automatically redirected to another
available link.
