The honest brief

Lambda

1-Click Clusters give self-serve, contract-free access to multi-node B200/H100 training clusters that elsewhere require procurement cycles.

  • Single GPUs up to superclusters
  • Self-serve multi-node clusters
  • No long-term hyperscaler contracts
  • Deep NVIDIA collaboration
  • No free tier
  • In-demand GPUs can sell out
  • Fewer managed services than hyperscalers

Nebius

Covers the full AI stack from bare-metal GPU clusters up to managed per-token inference, where many GPU clouds stop at raw compute.

  • Latest NVIDIA silicon, H100 through Blackwell
  • Managed Slurm and Kubernetes built in
  • Token Factory per-token inference layer
  • Nasdaq-listed, with Microsoft and Meta deals
  • AI-only cloud — few general-purpose services
  • Younger ecosystem than the big general clouds
