    Is it time to go BACK to Bare Metal Servers?

    This month, Rich and Branden revisit the ongoing debate: virtualization, containers, or bare metal? A lot has changed since they first tackled this topic, and the lines between these approaches have only gotten blurrier. The guys break down where virtualization still makes sense, when bare metal may be the better choice, and how containers fit into the modern infrastructure conversation. They weigh the benefits, tradeoffs, and pitfalls of each approach to help answer the bigger question: is it time to rethink how we deploy workloads?

    SPECIAL: The Founder Who Built a Cloud to Fit Your Business, Not the Other Way Around

    **Our listeners can get 30% off OpenMetal-hosted private clouds and bare-metal servers with the code below** Promo Code: RICHOMI30 Discount: 30% off clouds and bare metal hardware Promotion Page: 👉 https://openmetal.io/promos/2guystek-openmetal-intro/ What if the problem isn't your business, it's your cloud? Todd Robinson, founder and CEO of OpenMetal, built a hosted private cloud platform around a simple but powerful idea: your cloud should be architected to fit your business, not the other way around. In this conversation, we get into Todd's background, how he ended up building OpenMetal, and why the hyperscaler model is fundamentally broken for a huge chunk of businesses that deserve better. We also talk about open-source infrastructure, cloud cost realities, and what it actually looks like to have an engineering-first cloud provider in your corner. OpenMetal delivers on-demand, hosted private cloud infrastructure powered by OpenStack and Ceph, providing businesses with dedicated, single-tenant environments at a fraction of hyperscaler costs. No surprise billing. No vendor lock-in. No compromising your architecture to fit someone else's platform. In this interview, we cover: ✅ How Todd built OpenMetal and why hosted private cloud needed a better solution ✅ OpenStack and Ceph as the open source foundation for enterprise private cloud ✅ Why AWS, Azure, and GCP aren't the right fit for every business workload ✅ Cloud cost optimization and what switching to private cloud actually saves ✅ The engineer-to-engineer approach that sets OpenMetal apart ✅ AI-enabled red teaming and what it means for cloud security right now ✅ Why open source infrastructure is winning against proprietary cloud platforms Oh, and there's a story about a silverback gorilla in Uganda that you did not see coming. Trust me. #Sponsored by #OpenMetal!
