Sorry if I missed it in the FAQ, do you have finite capacity or do you have an agreement with the data center where you can bring on more gpus with demand. My worry would be to wake up one day and find that all GPUs are in use.
And (this may sound naive) I work with other companies' data, I have a responsibility to them to keep it safe, do you have any concerns with this being used for "professional" applications or are you targeting research / hobby?
To be clear, I am dealing with things that my clients are comfortable with me working with on mainstream cloud providers, not state secrets or data with legislative requirements.
- ilmoi 6y agoGreat questions. 1) There's a finite capacity in the high 10s of GPUs. Currently the service is utilized at <10% capacity, so there's a lot of room to grow before we run out. If that was to happen (or even if we get to 50%), I could go and request more and (hopefully) expand the capacity quickly. 2)When building gpu.land I specifically wanted to make it safe for users to upload / store sensitive data. Of course the service is more geared towards hobbyists / researchers, just because that's an easier market to reach for a solo dev - but there is nothing at the technical level that sacrifices data privacy. For example, data on instances is encrypted both at rest and in transit within the DC + you and only you have SSH keys to your instance and nobody else can access it.
