Optimal workloads
- •Frontier Large Language Model Pre-Training
- •Full-Parameter Fine-Tuning (>70B Parameters)
- •High-Throughput FP8 / FP16 Production Inference
- •Massive Scale Deep Learning Research
Buyer advice
If your workload requires low-latency serving of 70B+ models (like Llama 3 70B, DeepSeek, or Mixtral 8x22B) or full-parameter training, H100 is unmatched. On decentralized networks like Akash and io.net, you can rent H100 instances at $1.85–$2.10/hr compared to $3.88+/hr on AWS EC2 p5.48xlarge.
