Unihost provides transparent AI server price structures based on actual resource allocation. You can rent AI server capacity matched to your workload-from single-GPU inference to multi-GPU training clusters-with predictable costs.

Dedicated servers for AI are essential platforms for both the compute-intensive phase of AI training and the subsequent application stage of AI inference. These high-performance servers, often configured with multiple GPUs, are primarily used for demanding AI training, where massive datasets are fed to algorithms to create sophisticated AI models. The dedicated nature ensures consistent power and low latency, crucial for efficient scaling of deep learning experiments. Once models are trained, these servers switch roles to facilitate AI inference, where the developed AI is put into production to generate predictions or responses.

AI Server Price Drivers

AI dedicated server pricing depends on hardware and service factors. Knowing which components drive costs lets you optimize for your artificial intelligence requirements.

GPU Choice

GPU selection has the largest impact on AI server cost. Entry-level cards suit lightweight inference workloads. Mid-range options handle moderate model training and generative AI tasks. Datacenter GPUs-A100, H100-command premium pricing but deliver the GPU VRAM essential for large language models and deep learning at scale.

The CUDA ecosystem compatibility matters-ensure your frameworks support the selected architecture. Detailed comparisons appear in AI servers hardware.

For general GPU workloads, GPU servers offer flexible configurations.

CPU and RAM Sizing

CPU performance affects data preprocessing and model loading. AMD EPYC processors provide high core counts preventing bottlenecks when feeding multiple GPUs. For lighter workloads, AMD Ryzen offers cost-effective alternatives.

RAM scales with model complexity. Large language models may need 256GB+ for weight loading. Undersizing forces slower disk swapping, degrading inference workloads.

Storage and Bandwidth

Dataset storage demands fast NVMe for training pipelines. Storage Box provides expandable capacity for large datasets.

Network throughput matters for distributed training. 10Gbps servers deliver bandwidth for multi-node clusters.

Balancing guidance appears in AI server specs.

Advantages

PCI Express Gen 4

PCI Express Gen 4 doubles the bandwidth of PCIe Gen 3, improving data-transfer speeds from CPU memory for data-intensive tasks like AI, data science, and 3D design. Faster PCIe performance also accelerates GPU direct memory access (DMA) transfers, providing faster I/O communication of video data between the GPU and GPUDirect® for Video-enabled devices delivering a powerful solution for live broadcasts. A40 is compatible with PCI Express Gen 3 for deployment flexibility.

Advantages

3rd-Generation Tensor cores

NVIDIA A100 delivers 312 TFLOPS of deep learning performance. That’s 20X the Tensor floating-point operations per second (FLOPS) for deep learning training and 20X the Tensor tera operations per second (TOPS) for deep learning inference compared to NVIDIA Volta GPUs.

Advantages

Multi-Instance GPU

An A100 GPU can be partitioned into as many as seven GPU instances, fully isolated at the hardware level with their own high-bandwidth memory, cache, and compute cores. MIG gives developers access to breakthrough acceleration for all their applications, and IT administrators can offer right-sized GPU acceleration for every job, optimizing utilization and expanding access to every user and application.

Advantages

Server location choice

Pick from the best data centers in United Kingdom, Finland, Germany, Romania, Netherlands, Poland, United States, Canada, Singapore or South Korea to get the lowest latency from your target audience to your resource. All servers are connected to the World main Internet channels and have high-speed channels to North America and European countries.

Advantages

Next-Gen NVLink

NVIDIA NVLink in A100 delivers 2x higher throughput compared to the previous generation. When combined with NVIDIA NVSwitch™, up to 16 A100 GPUs can be interconnected at up to 600 gigabytes per second (GB/sec), unleashing the highest application performance possible on a single server. NVLink is available in A100 SXM GPUs via HGX A100 server boards and in PCIe GPUs via an NVLink Bridge for up to 2 GPUs.

Advantages

Free support and management

Our tech support team is available to you 24/7. Write your question, call, or contact us in chat with any question you may have and we will help you. Each client gets Basic server management, but if it’s not enough — we are always ready to help out with more complicated tasks and round-the-clock monitoring available in our Managed packages.

Advantages

High-Bandwidth VRAM Memory

With up to 80 gigabytes of HBM2e, A100 delivers the world’s fastest GPU memory bandwidth of over 2TB/s, as well as a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) utilization efficiency of 95%. A100 delivers 1.7X higher memory bandwidth over the previous generation.

Advantages

Nvidia Ampere Architecture

Whether using MIG to partition an A100 GPU into smaller instances or NVLink to connect multiple GPUs to speed large-scale workloads, A100 can readily handle different-sized acceleration needs, from the smallest job to the biggest multi-node workload. A100’s versatility means IT managers can maximize the utility of every GPU in their data center, around the clock.

Advantages

Structural Sparsity

AI networks have millions to billions of parameters. Not all of these parameters are needed for accurate predictions, and some can be converted to zeros, making the models “sparse” without compromising accuracy. Tensor Cores in A100 can provide up to 2X higher performance for sparse models. While the sparsity feature more readily benefits AI inference, it can also improve the performance of model training.
