Pros & Cons

Gcore

Advantages

Wide global edge presence beyond typical neocloud regions
Access to Blackwell Ultra B300 and GB300 NVL72 systems
Combined CDN, networking and GPU stack from a single provider
Virtual GPU shelving preserves IPs and volumes at zero compute cost between runs

Considerations

Catalog spans many products beyond GPU compute, which can complicate pricing
GPU SKU availability varies meaningfully by region
Less GPU-specialized than dedicated training neoclouds

Hot Aisle

Advantages

Self-service MI300X VMs with transparent published rates metered by the minute, no sales call required
Dense XE9680 nodes with 8x400G RoCEv2 for multi-server scaling
Credit card to running compute in under a minute, with public IP and firewall control included
100G internet with unlimited bandwidth plus included IPv4/IPv6 addresses

Considerations

Single public region (Grand Rapids, MI) limits locality options
AMD-only GPU lineup today; MI355X is reservation-only for now
VMs top out at 4 GPUs; 8-GPU configurations are offered only as dedicated bare metal
