CPU and GPU machine options
Because different Datalore users have different needs, we offer a range of CPU and GPU machines to ensure a flexible choice of paid computation options. Below is the full list of machines you can use for computations in Datalore. The prices are stated in Datalore credits per hour. One Datalore credit equals 1 USD / 1 Euro.

Datalore credits
Datalore credits is the special currency unit for the use of our paid CPU and GPU machines. There are 3 ways you can get Datalore credits:
Paid plan subscription: Paid plan users get 12 free Datalore credits every month, the unused part of which expires at the end of the month.
Purchase: You can add Datalore credits via JetBrains Store. Find more details in Purchase Datalore credits.

.Spot and on-demand machines
Default behaviour
For each new notebook computation, Datalore launches a new AWS EC2 machine. By default, this is a spot machine, a cheaper option, which ensures lower expenses on your side. This machine type costs lower because such machines are not always available and theoretically can be interrupted at any time of computation.
Since spot machines are the default option, you may get messages prompting you to switch to on-demand machines if Datalore detects long-term computations.
On-demand machine alternative
On rare occasions, there is no spot machine available due to higher load on the AWS side. Users receive the On-demand machine alternative notification as shown below:
You can choose whether to use such an option (and pay extra Datalore credits) or wait for an available spot machine.
Procedures
In this chapter, you will learn how to switch machine options, manage your credit balance, and select an option for situations when there is no spot machine available for your scheduled runs.
