Hotel computing provides flexibility to purchase time on compute resources without the necessity to buy a node. This pay–as–you–go model is convenient for researchers with temporary or bursty compute needs. The hotel cluster includes both CPU and GPU servers. The CPU servers feature a combination of Intel Cascade and Skylake nodes, while the GPU servers comprise a variety of GPUs, including multiple V100s, one A100, and one P100.
Note: The units in the table below are in core hours. Though CPU/GPU hotel rates are the same, GPUs have a higher charge factor to reflect the higher performance compared to CPU.
Service | Unit | UC Rate | External Rate |
---|---|---|---|
TSCC Cycle | SU | $0.03 | 0.06 |
TSCC Cycle (UCSD campus customers) | SU | $0.025 | N/A |
For UCSD affiliates, the minimum hotel purchase is $250 (10,000 SUs). For other UC affiliates, the minimum hotel purchase is $300 (10,000 SUs).
