Paperspace

Paperspace is a cloud GPU platform for developing, training and deploying machine learning models, and it also rents out GPU-powered virtual machines. According to its website, Paperspace has joined DigitalOcean, which now runs support and sells the wider range of GPU and AI products. More than 500,000 builders use the platform, the company says, for work from machine learning to 3D graphics.

What Paperspace offers

• Machines — Windows and Linux virtual machines that keep their storage, with GPU choices up to the NVIDIA H100.
• Notebooks — a browser-based Jupyter environment on accelerated hardware with shared storage.
• Deployments — a container service that turns trained models into scalable API endpoints.
• Workflows — pipelines that automate machine learning jobs on GPU instances.
• Team tools — shared workspaces, visibility of usage and permissions, a REST API and a command line interface.
• On-demand billing — charged by the second, and a user can move to a different instance type whenever needed.

Who it works with

The platform is aimed at individual developers and organisations building AI and machine learning applications, as well as 3D graphics work.
