Pros & Cons

Hexgrid Cloud

Advantages

Dedicated GPU access for specific workloads.
Supports multiple regions including US, EU, and APAC.
No minimum usage requirements.

Considerations

Limited information available on support options.
Pricing for specific configurations not disclosed.

Sesterce

Advantages

Broad on-demand catalog running from Blackwell B300 and H200 down to previous-generation NVIDIA cards, plus Intel Gaudi 2
On-demand, spot, and reserved billing modes on the same clusters
VM and bare-metal deployment with single- and multi-GPU (up to 8x) configurations
European data residency across French sites, with hydro, nuclear, and solar energy under long-term PPAs

Considerations

Infrastructure concentrated in France, with no North American or Asia-Pacific regions
Rack-scale GB300 NVL72 and B200 capacity is contracted as reserved AI factory capacity rather than sold from the self-serve catalog
The newest and largest accelerators (B300, H200, Gaudi 2) are only sold as 8-GPU nodes, with no smaller self-serve size
