This article examines the recent Go proposal to add a GOOS=none target, enabling Go programs to run on bare‑metal hardware without an operating system, outlines the TamaGo project's achievements, discusses compatibility challenges, and evaluates the potential impact on Go’s future development and use cases.
This article explains what bare metal servers are, their key features such as exclusive hardware use, cloud‑style management, and zero virtualization overhead, compares them with traditional physical servers, outlines use cases like AI, big data, and HPC, and details the OpenStack Ironic and DPU‑based implementation by MaShang Cloud.
This guide walks developers with C and assembly experience through building a simple bare‑metal operating system that runs directly on ARM64 hardware without any existing OS or bootloader, offering a hands‑on introduction to low‑level system concepts for students, embedded engineers, and computer‑system enthusiasts.
Google reports that its ongoing migration of Android's native components from C++ to Rust has reduced memory‑related security bugs, with Rust now powering about 21% of new native code in Android 13 and being used to rewrite critical security modules such as the protected virtual machine firmware.
The article examines the advantages and disadvantages of deploying container cloud platforms on bare‑metal servers versus virtual machines in the financial sector, covering performance, cost, management, security, workload suitability, and practical recommendations for banks based on their IaaS capabilities.
The article argues that programs can indeed run without an operating system by treating the OS itself as a program, discusses the challenges of bootstrapping, memory management, multitasking, device drivers, and concludes that bare‑metal programming lets developers fully control hardware, effectively creating their own minimal OS.
This article explains the concept of bare metal services in cloud computing, details the deployment and runtime phases of 360Stack bare metal servers using OpenStack Ironic, and compares flat, VLAN, and VXLAN network modes with accompanying architecture diagrams and configuration steps.
This article explains the concept of bare metal services in cloud computing, details OpenStack Ironic's role, walks through the provisioning and running phases, and compares flat, VLAN, and VXLAN network modes for deploying bare metal servers.
This article details a step‑by‑step offline installation of an OpenShift 4 enterprise high‑availability cluster on bare‑metal, covering prerequisites, static‑IP configuration without DHCP or load balancers, mirror registry setup, installation pitfalls, post‑install tasks, and extensive troubleshooting tips.
This talk outlines why organizations pursue cloud adoption, defines cloud‑native goals, reviews emerging trends such as bare‑metal and hyper‑convergence, and shares practical private‑cloud operation experiences, including ITIL processes, project management, and tooling, offering a comprehensive view of national‑level private‑cloud practice.
This article explains why X86 bare‑metal services are essential for high‑performance, security‑critical workloads, describes their architecture and management processes, and outlines the steps—standardization, automation, service‑orientation, and self‑service—used by Hengfeng Bank to implement and operate them.
Server virtualization, a key cloud computing technology, encompasses various architectures—including hosted, bare‑metal, operating‑system level, and hybrid virtualization—each with distinct mechanisms for resource abstraction, and the article compares these models while highlighting trends toward hardware‑assisted solutions such as KVM, Hyper‑V, and VMware.
The Ctrip OpenStack Shanghai meetup gathered over 100 practitioners to share in‑depth technical sessions on Neutron distributed virtual routing, SDN and network virtualization, OpenStack upgrade and Bare Metal, large‑scale OpenStack operations at eBay, mobile management solutions, and Ctrip's desktop cloud platform.
