Vast has a datacenter H200 for less than what their A100 goes for.


Sure, but vast feels like renting a GPU from a rando.


Either you're familiar with GPU pricing and being willfully ignorant, or you're not familiar with the pricing in which case let someone who is point out:

- "Datacenter" means it's comparable to Runpod's secure cloud pricing.

- A spot instance of an H200 under someone's living room media console wouldn't go for A100 rates.

$3.50 will also get you an H100 at a laundry list of providers people build real businesses on.

Certainly all better track records than fly.io, especially on a post where they explain it's not working out for them as an offering and then promise they'll keep it shambling along.


You seem like you're familiar with vast. Have you used their autoscaler/serverless offering before? I haven't tried it yet, but it wasn't immediately obvious if I could have something like ollama running and scaled to zero instances when not in use.
