France 1 config 8x
Intel's data center AI accelerator with on-chip Ethernet for cost-efficient scale-out.
We don't see much volatility for the Gaudi2 right now. Most providers are clustered between $1.02 and $1.21/hr per GPU, so availability is likely the deciding factor.

Heads up: We do our best to keep these specs & prices accurate. However, cloud costs may fluctuate based on region, usage, and other factors not listed here. These are estimates based on common setups and are for informational purposes only. Always verify current rates & exact specs with the provider before provisioning.
Comes with 96GB HBM2e and 24x 100GbE RoCEv2 ports integrated on-chip, so clusters scale out over standard Ethernet without separate NICs. FP8 support and competitive pricing make it a cost-efficient option for training and inference on the Intel Gaudi software stack.
The Gaudi software stack supports fewer frameworks and models than CUDA, so workloads relying on niche libraries may need porting. For broad ecosystem compatibility, H100 or A100 remain easier to adopt.
The median on-demand price has held steady around $1.13/hr per GPU across providers.
With 96GB of VRAM, the Gaudi2 is well suited to 30B-class models in FP16, and 70B-class models in 4-bit or 8-bit quantized form.
The Gaudi2 has 96GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.
The Gaudi2 has 2,450 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.
The Gaudi2 supports 6 precision formats. Training: BF16, FP16, TF32, FP32. Inference: FP8, INT8.
No. The Gaudi2 is a PCIe-only GPU with no NVLink, so it is better suited to single-GPU inference and smaller-scale workloads than large distributed training jobs.
Gaudi2 pricing currently ranges from $0.58/hr to $1.21/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.
At 720 hours per month, one Gaudi2 can cost between $420.30 to $871.20 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.
The Gaudi2 is available from 2 cloud providers: Sesterce, Cyfuture AI.
