Re: Introducing Amazon EC2 P3 Instances
#52Hi guys, Dillon here from Paperspace (https://www.paperspace.com). We are a cloud that specializes in GPU infrastructure and software. We launched V100 instances a few days ago in our NY and CA regions and its much less expensive than AWS.
Think of us as the DigitalOcean for GPUs with a simple, transparent pricing and effortless setup & configuration:
AWS: $3.06/hr V100*
Paperspace: $2.30 /hr or $980/month for dedicated (effective hourly is only $1.3/hr)

#53P3 instances no doubt provide a powerful platform and is going to be useful for data compression.
And GPU databases that use compression will gain another big advantage

Thanks Jeff, I forwarded your blog post to our Chief Scientist.

This is great!
I'm looking for a way to run serverless (Amazon Lambda style) GPU operations (preferably using OpenCL). Are there any plans for such a service in your platform?

We have definitely been thinking a lot about what that would look like (i.e. is it more of a job architecture, an API, clustering, etc). Would love to hear your thoughts on what GPU Lambda might look like. Feel free to hit me up directly dillon [@] paperspace [dot] com if you want to continue the conversation :)

We're adding sync support to Worker (which has GPU support) at Iron.io soon! This will allow you to run long running background jobs (current behavior) as well as sync serverless/faas Lambda-like functions within a single API.

#58Random question: Why are we still using mostly GPUs for computation rather than CPUs custom-designed for ML tasks?
For some definition of "we", we are not.

#59Looks like Paperspace announced Volta support yesterday: https://blog.paperspace.com/tesla-v100-available-today/ One nice thing here is you can do monthly plans instead of reserved on AWS which is a minimum $8-17k upfront. Really great to see the cloud providers adopting modern GPUs.
Re: Introducing Amazon EC2 P3 Instances
#60The P3 instances are the first widely and easily accessible machines that use the NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPUs. These GPUs are straight up scary in terms of firepower. To give an understanding of the speed-up compared to the P2 instances for a research project of mine: + P2 (K80) with single GPU: ~95 seconds per epoch + P3 (V100) with single GPU: ~20 seconds per epoch Admittedly this isn't exactly fair for either GPU - the…
I've been using the P100 on Softlayer and was impressed. Looks like V100 may be 2..3x faster on some tasks, will be interesting to test it. P.S. with that memory speed, it can probably run 300..400MH/s on ETH.
Genuinely curious: Given that Softlayer bare metal server prices start at 700$ per month is there even remote chance of this actually being profitable?
