= Machine sets that place machines on Dedicated Hosts

[role="_abstract"]
You can configure machine sets to place machines on {aws-first} Dedicated Hosts. Dedicated Hosts are physical servers with instance capacity that is fully dedicated to your use. You can use Dedicated Hosts with your existing per-socket, per-core, or per-VM software licenses. With dynamic host allocation, the Machine API Operator requests a Dedicated Host from {aws-short} and applies the specified tags to the Dedicated Host.
