AWS Databricks Pay-as-you-Go

DataDNA — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 16:37:26 GMT

Hi Team,

We are currently using AWS cloud service for our AI/ML Project. We wanted to use Databricks based GPU service for model training purposes. We do not find a Pay-as-you-go option in marketplace for this purposes.

Can someone help me on this !

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Vijay

it is just a Databricks subscription. When you have subscribed, you can use a GPU based cluster for your ML. There should be a pay-as-you-go version of Databricks, but there is no separate offering for GPU based clusters, it is included.

I am attaching the screenshot here for reference. I cannot see a Pay as you go option at all. It is only asking for a monthly contract. Kindly help !

I guess you try to roll out something else?

I went to AWS marketplace & selected 'Databricks' from it. This is the screenshot of databricks via AWS Marketplace. Is there any other way to use AWS Databricks apart from this so that I can get the GPU Pay-as-you-go option?

Maybe you have a special AWS contract/agreement?

Nope . We do not have anything like that . We in fact prefer to go with Pay-as-you-go as its easier to manage our resources & pricing.

Any pointers on this ? or may be can you direct us to enable it ?

We are exclusively on Azure so can't help you with that.

But there are people in here who do work on AWS, so they can probably help you out.

Can you tag them so that I can follow up with them parallely

Hi @Vijayakeerthi Jayakumar ,

When you try to create a cluster, do you see the "ML" runtime? Here is a screenshot of how to select the ML databricks runtime and how it should look like the GPU vs CPU instance type
