Read Only Collaborator Role¶
Users can now invite users with a "read-only collaborator" role to view resources, configurations, and status. These users cannot create, modify, or delete any resources or perform operational actions.
GPU Reservations¶
Service providers can now enable tenants to prepurchase guaranteed capacity at a discounted reserved rate compared to on-demand resources. Tenants can pre-purchase a specific quantity of GPUs for each compute-type or service-type. The number of pre-purchased GPUs represents the customer's reserved quota at a set reservation rate.
For example, a customer requires 16 H200 GPUs on bare-metal servers to complete a specific model training or fine-tuning task over a six-month period. They want to ensure that GPUs are available to the team tasked with that goal during the reserved time.
| Aspect | On-Demand | Reserved |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Charged per time unit of use | Fixed for a three-month, six-month, one-year, etc. |
| Cost variability | Cost fluctuates with usage | Cost is fixed irrespective of usage |
| Availability | Not guaranteed, depends on capacity | Always guaranteed |
Important
Once a reservation request is accepted by the service provider, billing will begin immediately for the accepted quantities, regardless of whether instances are running.
Baseline SKUs¶
The Rafay Platform provides a number of baseline SKUs that admins can offer end users/customers with minimal configuration. It is possible to go from a baseline SKU to a customer facing SKU in just a few minutes.
