Iwave Cloud Pricing

Iwave’s pricing is designed for flexibility. Instances are highly configurable, giving you the freedom to customize GPU, CPU, RAM, and storage requests when scheduling your workloads.

Our entire infrastructure is purpose-built for compute-intensive workloads, and everything from our servers to our storage and networking solutions are designed to deliver best-in-class performance that are
up to 36x faster and 70% less expensive than generalized public clouds.

Iwave GPU Cloud Pricing

Iwave Cloud GPU instance pricing is highly flexible, and meant to provide you with ultimate control over configuration and cost. Pricing below is a la carte, where the total instance cost is a combination of a GPU component, the number of vCPU, and the amount of RAM allocated. To keep things simple, CPU and RAM cost are the same per base unit, and the only variable is the GPU chosen for your workload or Virtual Server.

A valid GPU instance configuration must include at least 1 GPU, at least 1 vCPU and at least 2GB of RAM. When deploying a Virtual Server, the GPU instance configuration must also include at least 40GB of root disk NVMe tier storage.

Iwave CPU Cloud Pricing

CPU only instance pricing is simplified and is driven by the cost per vCPU requested. Pricing scales linearly with the vCPU count, and RAM is included in the per vCPU price.

GPU Cloud Pricing FAQ

How is Iwave up to 80% less expensive?

At Iwave, we focus on delivering the best performance-adjusted cost in the market. To do this, we offer the lowest on-demand prices of any large-scale cloud provider, the industry’s broadest range of NVIDIA GPUs so you can always find the best GPU for your workload, the fastest & most flexible infrastructure for performance and efficiency, and exceptional support to ensure that your infrastructure is optimized for performance and cost.

Do you offer discounts?

The vast majority of our clients enjoy the benefits of Iwave’s on-demand pricing with no contract or commitment. For workloads with relatively predictable usage patterns, we offer two types of volumetric discounts: Reserved Instances (up to 60% for 24/7 committed usage) and Bulk Credits (up to 25% for large-scale, burst compute use cases consumed on-demand). Reach out to our Sales team to learn more about how these discounts can help your business.

Do you charge for bandwidth/data transfer?

No! Gross. Other cloud providers “tax” you for each GB you transfer, making the cost to run at scale in the cloud prohibitive. At Iwave, we don’t charge for things like region-to-region transfers, workstation data, or egress in the vast majority of use cases. If your bandwidth needs are extraordinary, we’ll work to understand your needs before negotiating flat bandwidth rates with our suppliers on your behalf.

Do you offer “spot” or interruptible instances?

No, we do not. You can think of our on-demand pricing as “interruptible pricing for uninterruptible instances”. Our clients benefit from economics that allow them to scale, with peace of mind knowing that when they spin-up instances on Iwave Cloud, it’s theirs until they choose to spin it down once their workloads are complete.

Does Iwavehave a free credits program?

We don’t have a standard free credits program. Other cloud providers hand out a ton of free credits, and subsidize the cost by charging clients extremely high prices once those credits run out. By asking all of our clients to pay an appropriate cost for compute, we’re able to deliver economics that scale for years to come.
