Create an Instance

  1. Log in to the console
  2. Click Create Instance
  3. A dialog will open—select your mode, GPU, CPU, disk size, and template
  4. Click Launch

Configuration Options

The console provides the same configuration options as the CLI and extension:
  • Mode: Prototyping or Production
  • GPU Type: A6000, A100, H100 (availability depends on mode)
  • GPU Count: 1 GPU for most prototyping GPUs; H100 prototyping supports 1-2 GPUs. Production supports 1-8.
  • vCPUs: Options vary by GPU type and count (prototyping only)
  • Disk Size: 100GB to 400GB (prototyping) or 1000GB (production)
  • Template: Base, Ollama, ComfyUI, and more

Mode Selection

Choose between optimized development pricing or full compatibility:
  • Prototyping (default): Lower cost with CUDA-level optimizations. Best for development.
  • Production: Standard VM with full compatibility. Best for long-running jobs and production workloads.
See Prototyping vs Production for details on each mode.
