Skill instructions

Lambda Labs GPU Cloud Guide to running ML workloads on Lambda Labs GPU cloud with on-demand instances and 1-Click Clusters. When to use Lambda Labs Use Lambda Labs when: - Need dedicated GPU instances with full SSH access - Running long training jobs (hours to days) - Want simple pricing with no egress fees - Need persistent storage across sessions - Require high-performance multi-node clusters (16-512 GPUs) - Want pre-installed ML stack (Lambda Stack with PyTorch, CUDA, NCCL) Key features: - GPU variety: B200, H100, GH200, A100, A10, A6000, V100 - Lambda Stack: Pre-installed PyTorch, TensorFlow, CUDA, cuDNN, NCCL - Persistent filesystems: Keep data across instance restarts - 1-Click Clusters: 16-512 GPU Slurm clusters with InfiniBand - Simple pricing: Pay-per-minute, no egress fees - Global regions: 12+ regions worldwide Use alternatives instead: - Modal: For serverless, auto-scaling workloads - SkyPilot: For multi-cloud orchestration and cost optimization - RunPod: For cheaper spot i
