#0004: Faster storage and more compute

We're onboarding more compute next week, including additional capacity for H100 and H200 nodes. Reach out to us if you'd like early access.

In the meantime, here's everything we shipped this week:

[NEW]

  • 3x faster storage file browsing. We added backend caching so directory listings and metadata load way faster now. Try it yourself: what you're seeing is a 200GB project that was split into ~200k tiny binary files, all merged and rendered in the UI. Side note: splitting your volumes into many small files is what lets us mount volumes 100x faster, similar to how git-lfs works with HuggingFace.

  • 2x faster volume forking. There's also a new progress indicator showing estimated time remaining for your dataset copies.

  • Code viewer in storage has proper syntax highlighting with a cleaner theme. Files with thousands of lines no longer hang the browser. We switched to Prism with optimized rendering and React memoization.

[COMING SOON]

  • Cloudy CLI to manage everything from your terminal. Works with Claude Code too, so you can spin up GPUs without leaving your editor.

  • Templates for large scale distributed training, finetuning, or simple single node experiments.

  • Detach and attach volumes on live pods without stopping your instance.


See you next Friday :)
