For your workloads that require a single tenant environment, our Dedicated Virtual Servers run on Dedicated Hosts. This means no need to worry about noisy neighbors, compliance with policies requiring physical isolation, and maximum placement control for affinity and anti-affinity use cases.

If you have flexible workloads and need cost savings, Transient Virtual Servers may be a good option. Transient instances are provisioned when there is unused capacity available in IBM Cloud - therefore, when resources are required for full-paying instances, you can also lose these Transient instances.

For your workloads that require predictability, you can reserve virtual server capacity at a one year or three year term with our Reserved Virtual Servers. Because of this commitment term, Reserved Virtual Servers also provide deep discounts and consistency in your monthly payment for vCPU and RAM.
