GPU Container billing
Billing logic
Minimum billable usage & charging schedule
| Component | Details | Minimum billable usage | Charge interval |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPU Instance | Number of GPUs, usage duration (minutes), Status: Running | 1 minute | Every 15 minutes |
| Persistent Storage | GB capacity, usage duration (minutes), Status: Running/Stopped | 1 minute | Every 15 minutes |
Billing equation
The platform calculates costs using the following formula:
- Usage duration: measured in hours (not rounded up).
- Storage volume: measured in GB.
- GPU cost: usage hours × GPU hourly price.
- Storage cost: usage hours × GB × storage hourly price.
- Total cost:
GPU cost + Storage cost.
Practical example
You use a container with one H100 GPU (15 CPUs, 250 GB RAM, 1 GPU) and 1000 GB temporary storage priced at $2.31/hour, together with 1000 GB persistent storage priced at $0.00013/GB/hour, for 30 minutes.
Calculation breakdown:
- Usage duration: 30 minutes = 0.5 hours
- GPU cost:
0.5 × $2.31 = $1.16 - Storage cost:
1000 × $0.00013 × 0.5 = $0.0015 - Total: $1.16 + $0.0015 = $1.1615
