General Tips for choosing platform

  • Training models with GPU: Kaggle vs Colab. Video by MiAI
  • Case: Train a model <=50M para (e.g. ResNet50) with GPU. What are the options?
    • Vast.ai: cheap, but charge when you upload data. Servers are outside VN, hence upload speed can be slow. Better to connect to Drive then upload data.
    • runpod.
    • modal.ai.
    • Kaggle or Colab: 50M is still manageable, just need to save model and re-train multiple times.
