Saturn Cloud
Saturn Cloud is a platform for operating GPU infrastructure as metered AI services.
What Saturn Cloud is
Saturn Cloud is a platform for operating GPU infrastructure as metered AI services. It brings bare metal, managed Kubernetes, and managed Slurm into one control plane, supporting inference endpoints, training and fine-tuning, and GPU development workspaces. Workspaces include JupyterLab, VS Code, SSH, and persistent storage; supported languages include Python, R, Julia, and Java. Each customer gets a separate Kubernetes or Slurm cluster by default. GPU-hour and inference-token use can be tracked by user, project, and tenant, with invoicing information available through the API and a Snowflake view. Enterprise deployments can run in a customer’s cloud account, and Enterprise data can remain in the user’s AWS environment. Hosted has free platform access, but resource use requires Pro. Hosted Pro bills by resource hours, with compute and storage rates varying by instance; storage is listed at $0.10/GB-month. The site lists a Hosted plan at $0.09 a month (billed Pay-as-you-go, hourly; 16 GB memory · 4 vCPUs · 0 vGPUs), and Hosted Free Plan at no cost.
Good
- Supports inference, training, fine-tuning, and GPU workspaces
- Separate Kubernetes or Slurm cluster per customer by default
- Metering by user, project, and tenant
- Free access to platform; supports Python, R, Julia, and Java
Watch out
- Resource usage on Hosted requires Pro
- Version history is not supported
- Nightly backups cannot be reconfigured
- Hosted Pro compute and storage rates vary by instance
Who it suits
Saturn Cloud suits teams that need GPU-backed development, training, fine-tuning, or inference workloads and want usage metering. Enterprise deployments may suit organizations that want the platform in their own cloud account and dedicated support.
Verdict
Saturn Cloud combines GPU workspaces and AI workloads with infrastructure management and usage metering.
