AMD EPYC power for heavy workloads

New AMD EPYC processors on IBM Cloud® Bare Metal Servers help overcome performance constraints and optimize throughput for heavy compute tasks such as data analytics, global gaming clouds and fluid dynamics apps.
CPU choice

Choose from second or third generation AMD EPYC processors to best meet your cost and performance needs.

 For demanding workloads

Customize and provision with highly differentiated core count, clock speed and memory bandwidth options from AMD.

 Bandwidth perks

20 TB of outbound data transfer is included with all monthly bare metal servers.

 On-demand provisioning

Activate processors on IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers in as little as three hours.

 Up to 128 cores per server

IBM Cloud Bare Metal Servers with the third generation AMD EPYC 7763 processors yield 64 cores per CPU/128 cores per dual-processor server.

 Max boost to 3.6 GHz*

Fast clock speeds help solve intensive computing tasks in less time for improved platform productivity.

 Big memory bandwidth

Get eight memory channels and up to 4096 GB RAM per CPU.

 Secure boot

AMD EPYC architecture features encryption of main memory and VM memory to help secure the boot process.
