Dataoorts FAQs

1. What is GC2 Instances ?

GC2 Instances are development cloud instances that are fast, light weight and comes pre-configured with DMI, so you can start working on your project right away without any hassle.

1.1 What is X-Series Instances ?

X-Series Instances, operating on our new advanced Super DDRA cluster, Are optimized for compute-intensive workloads, making them ideal for tasks such as fine-tuning and training large AI models.

2. What is DMI ?

DMI stands for Dataoorts Machine Image. It’s the base snapshot image used by instances before spinning up, and you have the flexibility to choose your preferred DMI according to your needs before spinning up the instances.

3. Can We Use Serverless ?

serverless will arrive soon we are working on it.

4. Does Dataoorts provides on demand pricing ?

Yes. We Do Provide On-Demand pricing as well as Reservation too.

5. What types of GPU Instances we can access in Dataoorts ?

We’re continuously adding multiple GPU types of instances. You can check the current GPU type instances on the platform, for example, t4-16-1. This means the instance has one T4 GPU with 16 GB of GPU memory. Similarly, in the near future, as per demand, we will add multiple GPUs per instance”h100-80-8″.

6. What is DDRA ?

Advanced GPU Virtualization Technology, Learn About DDRA: Here

7. How can we access our Instances ?

You can access your instance using password based SSH. After that, you can modify the settings to your preferred method of access.

8. Do We Have Root/Sudo Access to Instances ?

Yes, you have root-level access to your instances, and your instances are virtualized via DDRA. You can check here for more details. We provide instances for learning, training, and performing other industry-level tasks. We have an intelligent system to monitor the instances, and if we find any suspicious activity that could be harmful, such as bypassing your instance security or any other thing, We will block your instance. Further actions may be taken. You can read more about it here.

9. Can we continuously utilize GPU compute resources at 100% throttle ?

The short answer is no. We provide instances that use DDRA technology. We have a large GPU cluster that is expanding continuously. The GPU compute memory and threads are dynamically assigned to the user with the highest priority. However, we do reserve approximately 50% of GPU compute resources, memory, and threads for every instance. So, the average GPU power you can utilize is between 70% to 80%, even if you use your GPU instances at 100% throttle.

10. How many vCPU cores, vRAM, and storage volume do we have in our instances ?

It depends on the specific instance type. Currently, we provide storage as follows: for instances with below 20 GB of GPU memory, the storage is 50 GB; for instances with 20-50 GB of GPU memory, the storage is 60 GB; and for instances with 60-100 GB of GPU memory, the storage is 80 GB. The amount of vRAM and vCPU you will receive varies and is difficult to foretell. However, rest assured that you will have more than enough resources to perform any AI/ML task.

11. What are platform fees and service charges?

It’s completely free, We don’t charge any platform or service fees.

12. Are the prices inc. or exc. of taxes?

All prices and costs include taxes, so you won’t need to pay anything extra. You get the full amount you top up. If you’re outside of India, a very small currency conversion fee is charged by the payment gateway. If you’re in India, you won’t need to pay this fee.
