A GPU cloud platform provides scalable, on-demand access to graphics processing units (GPUs) via the cloud. Instead of purchasing and maintaining expensive GPU hardware, you can rent powerful GPU instances for tasks like AI model training, deep learning, 3D rendering, and scientific simulations. DigitalOcean offers GPU Droplets that make it easy to deploy NVIDIA and AMD GPUs with a simple setup and transparent pricing.
A GPU cloud platform is ideal for anyone running compute-intensive workloads that require accelerated processing. This includes AI and machine learning developers training large models, researchers running complex simulations, 3D artists and game developers working with graphics and rendering pipelines, and data analysts processing massive datasets. DigitalOcean GPU Droplets are useful for developers, startups, and growing teams that need access to scalable GPU power without managing hardware.
Cloud GPU platforms provide a range of GPUs designed for different use cases. High-end options like NVIDIA H100 are commonly used for AI training, HPC, and large-scale inference. For graphics-heavy workloads, GPUs such as the NVIDIA L40S and RTX 6000 Ada are popular. AMD’s MI300X, MI300A, and MI325X GPUs are also offered for memory-intensive AI and HPC applications. DigitalOcean gives you access to these GPUs with flexible configurations, from single-GPU instances to 8-GPU clusters, so you can scale according to your project’s needs.
Selecting the right GPU for AI depends on your workload requirements. If you’re training large AI models or handling complex deep learning tasks, GPUs with high memory and advanced tensor cores like the NVIDIA H100 or AMD MI300X are recommended. For real-time AI inference, mid-range GPUs such as the NVIDIA L40S provide efficient, scalable performance. If you’re experimenting or running prototypes, GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada offer a balance of power and cost. DigitalOcean makes this process easy by allowing you to choose from a range of GPU options based on your workload.
The two leading manufacturers of AI GPUs are NVIDIA and AMD. NVIDIA is widely known for its CUDA ecosystem and products like the H100, A100, L40S, and RTX 6000 Ada, which are optimized for AI training and inference. AMD offers the MI300 series, including MI300X and MI325X, focusing on large memory capacity and open-source software support with ROCm. DigitalOcean provides access to both NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, giving you flexibility to choose the right platform for your AI or HPC projects.
