What data analysis needs

Four things to look for in the table below

  • Large sandboxes

    Data frames live in memory. Look at the largest sandbox a provider offers.

  • GPUs for heavy work

    Training and inference on larger models need a graphics card.

  • Sessions that last

    A long job must finish before the session limit stops it.

  • A clear hourly cost

    Large sandboxes cost more per hour. Compare the cost at the size you need.
