Use case

Answer in brief

A use case is what the GPU is for, such as training, fine-tuning, inference or experiments, and it decides which provider is the best fit.

Use case in practice

Each use case weights the same questions differently. Training cares about the rate and a machine that stays yours. Experiments care about the billing unit and start time.

Name your use case before you read any list of providers. A list written for another use case will point you the wrong way.
