Well… Hello there!! Joining this helpful discussion initiated by @sakshikuchroo and continued by @Joe-Elmoufak and @dimplesaini.230 about finding cloud GPUs in India for academic research! It’s great to see GCP and AWS being suggested.
I wanted to throw another potential option into the ring that you might find particularly cost-effective. Paperspace offers a variety of GPU instances, including the A100 and other powerful GPUs suitable for AI research. Their pricing is often more affordable compared to some of the larger cloud providers, and they offer excellent support for machine learning workloads.
Storage options like Block Storage are also available for large datasets.
Based on my experience, I’ve been using Paperspace for smaller machine learning projects and found it to be very efficient and cost-effective. The interface is easy to use, and they offer pay-as-you-go pricing.
I also found their API integration for machine learning workloads useful, which saved a lot of time in automating experiments. If you also need to run tests on web-based applications alongside your GPU workloads, LambdaTest is another useful tool for ensuring your web interfaces work properly across different browsers.
Happy researching!
