Cost Optimization
Machine offers several ways to optimize costs:
Spot Instances
By using spot instances, you can save up to 85% compared to on-demand instances. Spot instances are available for all GPU types and are ideal for fault-tolerant workloads.
Regional Selection
Choose specific regions to run your workloads based on cost and availability. Machine automatically finds the most cost-effective region for your workload when multiple regions are specified.
Rightsizing
Configure your runners with just the resources you need. Adjusting CPU cores and RAM appropriately can significantly reduce costs.
