Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | Gaudi2 | V100 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $1.21 /GPU/hr from $1.03 | $2.14 /GPU/hr from $0.14 | 44% cheaper on Gaudi2 |
| Reserved | -- /GPU/hr from $0.58 (12 mo) | $1.52 /GPU/hr from $0.22 (24 mo) | |
| Spot | No spot listings | $0.43 /GPU/hr from $0.09 |
Heads up: A provider's own page may quote a different figure, for example on tax, region or a promotion. A monthly-only plan shows a derived hourly rate. Medians are across providers, one vote each, so a large catalog does not outweigh a small one. No median for reserved on the Gaudi2: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
