What does the L40S rental index measure?
It measures the median of each provider’s lowest eligible quote for L40S, 48 GB, in a single-GPU instance. Each provider gets one weight. Spot, reserved, peer-to-peer, stale and unconfirmed-stock listings are excluded. Regions and non-GPU resources can still differ.
Is the reference price a guaranteed rental quote?
No. A reference summarizes provider observations under a defined basket. It is not a reservation, an average completed transaction, or the full cost of your workload. Check current capacity, billing terms, storage and transfer charges with the provider.
When does historical pricing start?
History begins with the first saved observation for that series. New series have no rows in older snapshots. Seven-day changes require a published observation on the matching date seven days earlier; missing dates are not estimated.
