Frequently asked questions
Everything about renting cloud GPUs, affiliate tracking and how we collect pricing data.
How is this provider's GPU pricing structured?
Almost all cloud GPU providers bill by the second or the hour for the compute, then separately for persistent storage and outbound data transfer. The figures on this page are the compute rate for one GPU, normalised so you can compare different instance shapes without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Can I get interruptible or spot capacity here?
That depends on the provider and is shown in the availability column. Marketplace-style platforms usually offer a bid-based interruptible tier, while dedicated clouds tend to sell only on-demand capacity. If spot is available it is almost always cheaper, provided your workload can checkpoint and restart.
Is there a minimum contract or commitment?
For on-demand and spot capacity there generally is not: you pay per hour or per second and can stop at any time. Reserved contracts exist at some providers and can cut the effective rate, but they are not required for the prices shown on this page.
How are storage and egress charged?
Persistent volumes are billed per GB per month, and outbound transfer is charged per GB beyond whatever allowance the provider includes. Those costs are additive to the GPU hour and can dominate the bill on data-heavy pipelines, so budget for them explicitly.
