Pros	Access to latest NVIDIA GPUs (Blackwell, Hopper, upcoming Vera Rubin) often ahead of hyperscalers Kubernetes-native with purpose-built AI tooling (Tensorizer, SUNK, Mission Control) Published performance metrics like 96% cluster goodput and MLPerf results Used by OpenAI, Mistral, IBM - proven at frontier-scale training	Wide open-model catalogue Competitive inference pricing Fine-tune + serve in one place Dedicated endpoints for production
Cons	No self-serve free tier; sales-gated with real capacity commitments Thin non-GPU ecosystem compared to AWS/GCP (no managed DBs, serverless, etc.) Single-vendor NVIDIA story means limited flexibility if you need TPUs or AMD Overkill and expensive for small experiments or single-GPU workloads	Latency varies by model Less polish than OpenAI
