Examples
bash
# Display pricing for a size slug
aleph instance price --size 4vcpu-8gb
# Display pricing with custom resource specification
aleph instance price --vcpus 2 --memory 4GB --disk-size 50GB
# Display pricing for a GPU instance
aleph instance price --gpu h100
# Display pricing for a GPU instance with more resources than the minimum
aleph instance price --gpu h100 --size 32vcpu-192gb
# List available GPU models
aleph instance price --list-gpus
# Display confidential instance pricing
aleph instance price --size 1vcpu-2gb --confidential
# Output as JSON
aleph instance price --size 4vcpu-8gb --jsonAvailable GPU Models
Use aleph instance price --list-gpus to see currently available GPU models and their minimum resource requirements. Example output:
| Model | Min size | VRAM | Tier |
|---|---|---|---|
rtx-4000-ada | 3vcpu-18gb | 20 GiB | standard |
rtx-3090 | 4vcpu-24gb | 24 GiB | standard |
rtx-4090 | 6vcpu-36gb | 24 GiB | standard |
l40s | 12vcpu-72gb | 48 GiB | standard |
a100 | 16vcpu-96gb | 80 GiB | premium |
h100 | 24vcpu-144gb | 80 GiB | premium |
h200 | 32vcpu-192gb | 141 GiB | premium |
GPU and confidential instances use separate pricing tiers and cannot be combined.
Instance Size Slugs
Size slugs provide preset configurations for standard instances:
1vcpu-2gb- 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM2vcpu-4gb- 2 vCPUs, 4 GB RAM4vcpu-8gb- 4 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM8vcpu-16gb- 8 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM
For custom sizing above these presets, use --vcpus, --memory, and --disk-size directly.
