Enterprise accounts can purchase reserved capacity, typically with 1 year commitments. Reserved capacity has the following advantages over ordinary on-demand deployments:

  • Guaranteed capacity
  • Higher quotas
  • Lower GPU-hour prices
  • Pre-GA access to newer regions
  • Pre-GA access to newest hardware

Usage and billing

Consuming a reservation is done by creating a deployment that meets the reservation parameters. For example, suppose you have a reservation for 12 H100 GPUs and create two deployments, each using 8 H100 GPUs. While both deployments are running, 12 of the H100s will count towards using your reservation, while the excess 4 H100s will be metered and billed at the on-demand rate. Follow deploying models on-demand to create a deployment.

When a reservation approaches its end time, ensure that you either renew your reservation or turn down a corresponding number of deployments, otherwise you may be billed at for your usage at on-demand rates.

Reservations are invoiced separately from your on-demand usage, at a frequency determined by your reservation contract (e.g. monthly, quarterly, or yearly).

Reserved capacity will always be billed until the reservation ends, regardless of whether the reservation is actively used.
