Provider Overview
Strengths & Best For
DataVolt is a European GPU cloud offering H100, H200, A100, and L40S instances with competitive on-demand and spot GPU rental pricing, full EU data residency, and straightforward access for AI and ML workloads. Spot availability makes it a cost-effective option for interruptible LLM training and fine-tuning jobs, while on-demand instances suit production inference. A practical European GPU cloud for teams that need GDPR-compliant infrastructure with flexible billing.
- Competitive H100/H200 pricing
- Spot availability
- EU data residency
- Simple pricing
IO.NET is a decentralized GPU network aggregating idle compute from data centers, crypto miners, and consumer hardware — including H100 and A100 — at prices typically well below traditional on-demand GPU cloud providers. The marketplace model enables batch AI inference, LLM training, and distributed workloads at dramatically reduced cost for teams comfortable with variable hardware reliability. A compelling option for crypto-native teams and cost-sensitive developers who can tolerate the trade-offs of a decentralized GPU network.
- Very low prices on H100 and A100
- Large pool of available GPUs
- Decentralized resilience
- Crypto-native billing
