Select a region

RegionAvailable GPU
Hà Nội (Southeast Asia)H100 SXM5
Tokyo (Japan)H200 SXM5

The region you select determines which GPU options are available.

note

Only regions enabled for your Workspace appear here. If a region is missing, contact your Organization Owner.

Select a GPU instance

  1. In the GPU Instance section, select a flavor card.
  2. Each card shows the GPU count, VRAM, CPU, RAM, and hourly cost.
  3. Cards marked Out of stock are not available — select a different flavor.
warning

Charges start when the notebook reaches Running. The pricing panel shows the estimated hourly cost before you confirm.

Configure persistent storage

  1. In the Persistent Storage section, enter a disk size in GB. Minimum is 50 GB, maximum is 10,000 GB.
  2. The mount path defaults to /home/user.

Persistent storage retains your files when the notebook is stopped or re-created. GPU instance data does not persist between sessions.

3. Wait for Running status

After clicking Create Notebook, the notebook card appears with status Creating. The GPU instance is being provisioned — this typically takes 3–5 minutes.
