Usage Guide

Here’s How You Can Use Your Credits Efficiently

Deployments on Nosana are by default set to using an “Infinite Strategy”, with a default “Container Timeout” of 6 hours and a “Replica Count” of 1.

This mean that one instance will be created for you, and will continue running until your credits run out. Depending on the GPU market you have chosen, your credits will run out quickly.

With an NVIDIA 5090, at $0.48/h, this will cost $350/month.

UsageHours/monthCost
24/7~730~$350
12 h/day~365~$175
8 h/day~243~$117
1 h/day~30~$14.40

With only $70 worth of compute credits, you’ll need to use it efficiently for the hackathon.

In order to do so, when creating your deployments, on https://deploy.nosana.com/deployments/create

  1. 1Click the “configure” button
  2. 2Go to the “Deployment Configuration” tab
  3. 3Select “Simple” from the “Deployment Strategy” drop down list
  4. 4Keep the “Replica Count” at 1
  5. 5Choose your desired “Container Timeout”
  6. 6Click “Save Changes”
  7. 7Last but not least choose a GPU market that fits your needs

Because billing is based on actual uptime, you only pay for the hours your instance is running. To avoid burning through credits, stop instances when they’re idle or lower the Container Timeout.

This should help you stretch those $70 as long as possible!
