Machines are high-performing computing for scaling AI applications.
Paperspace offers high-performance networking capabilities and various scenarios for isolation and connectivity.
You can control access to your machines with Private Networks, Public IPs, and VPN Gateways. There are no bandwidth charges for either ingress or egress.
Paperspace machines are connected to the internet through a 10 Gigabit, highly-available network. Public connectivity varies by region. Virtual Machines (VMs) in the NY2 region are guaranteed 2 Gbps of public throughput and burstable up to 10 Gbps. In all other regions, VMs can burst up to 10 Gbps but are soft capped at 900 Mbps.
Disk traffic runs over a 10 Gigabit, highly-available backend network.
A private IP address from the address range of the subnet to which it belongs is assigned to the default network interface.
Public IP addresses enable Paperspace machines to be addressable over the internet.
Paperspace offers the ability to connect with other cloud providers for example AWS Direct Connect via Megaport. Please contact sales to learn more.
Paperspace offers peering arrangements for select customers who wish to connect to Paperspace datacenters directly to improve data transfer speed and reliability. If you have exceptional data transfer requirements, please contact sales to learn more.
In the default networking configuration, every machine resides within its own logically isolated network and cannot communicate with other machines, shared drives, or other devices. In this scenario, a unique IP address is assigned from an available pool of private IP addresses. Traffic flows through a shared gateway and NATs out to the internet via a shared egress point. Changing any IP address results in loss of connectivity.
Private networks establish a dedicated Virtual Private Network (VPN), logically isolated from other networks in the Paperspace cloud. Machines into your private network can communicate with each other. This virtual network closely resembles a traditional home or office network. Private networking is required for Active Directory (AD) integration. The AD and Domain Controller (DC) must reside within your private network unless a VPN is configured. Each private network is assigned a /24 from the available private IP address space. From this /24, the first usable IP address is assigned to a virtual bridge facing the customer network on the router. The second usable IP is assigned to the user’s first machine, and so forth. Traffic can flow through its gateway and NATs out to the Internet. Traffic to destinations within the private network is allowed. Changing any IP address results in loss of connectivity.
H100 machines have 4x100 GigE connections for private network traffic connections.
Private networking is a prerequisite for establishing a VPN tunnel between your Paperspace network and other networks. Once in place, you can attach a VPN private gateway to your private network. When the VPN has been provisioned and configured on the customer side, all machines within your Paperspace network are directly reachable on your corporate network and vice versa. Paperspace supports IPSec VPN tunnels.
