Deepnote is one in every of CoCalc‘s direct rivals. In the present day (November 30, 2023) they introduced a serious worth lower on their pay-as-you-go charges:
“As you could have already heard, beginning December 1, we’re slashing the pay-as-you-go charges throughout all our machines – making them extra budget-friendly with none hidden phrases.”
At CoCalc, we just lately lastly launched pay as you go machines, which was one in every of our predominant improvement priorities for 2023. These are absolutely built-in with CoCalc, and had been an enormous quantity of labor to deliver to market. I used to be terrified that Deepnote’s main worth cuts would make Deepnote a a lot better deal than CoCalc.
Right here is how the Deepnote and CoCalc pricing compares:
| Deepnote’s New Worth | CoCalc Commonplace | CoCalc Spot | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 64GB RAM, 16vCPU | $1.54 | $0.59 | $0.12 |
| 128GB RAM, 16vCPU (32 CPU on cocalc) | $2.02 | $1.17 | $0.23 |
| K80 GPU (newer L4 GPU on cocalc) | $2.02 | $0.93 | $0.30 |
Conclusion: CoCalc’s costs are nonetheless extremely aggressive, even in gentle of Deepnote’s main worth cuts.
Additionally, spot cases do work very effectively for a lot of functions. For extra particulars and the right way to get these costs at https://cocalc.com, learn the remainder of this submit.
CAVEAT: evaluating RAM and vCPU is just not essentially simple. Perhaps I am fully mistaken.
Extra Particulars
I do not know precisely what Deepnote means by the above machine specs. Nonetheless, in accordance with my benchmarks, one of many absolute best machines we provide by way of Google Cloud is the AMD EPYC Milan household. Their single core efficiency is great, and a vCPU is equal to a whole core, which makes them as much as twice as quick as lot of “vCPU” choices on the market. We provide each spot cases and customary cases.
Efficiency: 16 vCPU and 64GB RAM
Our greatest pricing on an AMD EPYC with 64GB RAM and 16 cores is $0.59/hour for normal cases.
By choosing a area in Europe, the fee is barely $0.12/hour for a spot occasion. Spot cases might cease or not be obtainable, however our stats to date present they usually work effectively for days to weeks, maybe as a result of Google has constructed out such huge CPU capability:
In CoCalc the area the place the machine is situated is clear, so you may make the most of one of the best costs on the earth.
Excessive Reminiscence: 16 vCPU and 32GB RAM
Our analogue of “Excessive reminiscence” above is a t2d-standard-32 with 32 cores, 128B of RAM, and it prices $1.17/hour for the standard occasion, or $0.23/hour for a spot occasion.
Once more, one of the best worth on spot cases is in a unique area than for normal:
GPU
Deep notice provides a K80 GPU for $1.80/hour. We don’t provide K80’s on CoCalc since they’re so previous, however we have now L4’s which have the identical 24GB of RAM and are a a lot newer structure. Our GPU worth is $0.93/hour for normal cases, and $0.30/hour for spot cases:
Conclusion: CoCalc’s new costs are nonetheless aggressive. Yeah.
Completely satisfied Holidays! 🎄
