The Largest Cloud Providers Hardly Need Bare Metal Like They Do VMs
The cloud-native world largely takes its lead from the major cloud players when it comes to how to run its infrastructure. So what are the big providers Outside of exceptional use cases, we recommend the abstractions that VMs provide—whether on a public cloud, private cloud, or on-premises infrastructure.

- og:descriptionThe cloud-native world is taking its cues from the hyperscalers — and they’ve largely moved past bare metal.AWS, Azure, GCP and others run their core services on VM-based infrastructure, not bare metal. It’s a strategic signal: scalable, secure and SLA-backed virtualization is the foundation for modern workloads.That doesn’t mean bare metal is dead — high-performance computing, CPU-based licensing, and certain government contracts still require it. But for the vast majority of enterprise use cases, the hybrid approach — containers on VMs, with bare metal reserved for edge cases — offers the most reliable path.Read more: [link]#CloudNative #Infrastructure #Kubernetes #Virtualization #CloudComputing #DevOps
