Your questions answered
What SLA does OVHcloud guarantee for a GPU instance?
The SLA guarantees 99.99% monthly availability on GPU instances. For further information, please refer to the Terms and Conditions.
Which hypervisor is used for instance virtualisation?
What is PCI Passthrough?
Cards with GPUs are served via the physical server’s PCI bus. PCI Passthrough is a hypervisor feature that allows you to dedicate hardware to a virtual machine by giving direct access to the PCI bus, without going through virtualisation.
Can I resize a Cloud GPU instance?
Yes, Cloud GPU instances can be upgraded to a higher model after a reboot. However, they cannot be downgraded to a lower model.
Do GPU instances have anti-DDoS protection?
Can I switch to hourly billing from an instance that is billed monthly?
What is a Cloud GPU?
What is an H100 and A100 server?
Servers that are equipped with NVIDIA H100 and A100 GPUs are purpose-built to offer exceptional performance in HPC, AI, and data analytics.
