You want to run some heavy tasks in a cloud using GPUs. What would you do?

What features are the most important for you in a GPU cloud provider? Is it price, availability, GPU models, or something else?
How do you choose an instance type to run? Typically there are dozens of different instances in each provider.
Do you regularly use one or more providers?

i usually go for the cloud provider with the best price and availability. when choosing an instance type, i check the specs and calculate the VRAM needed for my tasks. i stick to Google's Vertex AI, Colab Pro, and local development for my work.
