Checking Resource Usage

Check your account's quota and usage for the current month by following these steps:

  1. Select Your Workspace - On your Nexus Dashboard, you can select the dropdown menu for workspaces and find the workspace associated with you.

  2. Select Workspace Settings - This is in the top right button on the dashboard for Settings.

  3. Select Resource Usage - This can be found on the left sidebar.

For each resource, you will be able to view your current usage, and your quota (the maximum amount you can use under your plan). We describe each resource type below.

Resource TypeDescriptionResetting Usage
Compute MinutesNumber of GPU computing minutes. This is calculated relative to a single Nvidia T4 GPU. More powerful GPUs use up more Compute Minutes.Automatically reset to 0 monthly
Images UploadedNumber of images uploaded, across all projectsDelete unneeded images to reduce usage
Artifacts StoredNumber of artifacts stored in the Artifacts page, across all projectsDelete unneeded artifacts to reduce usage
Artifacts ExportedNumber of TensorFlow models downloaded from the Artifacts page, across all projectsAutomatically reset to 0 monthly

❗️

Please note that -

  • Training will stop once your account hits the quota for Compute Minutes, even if model training is ongoing
  • Updates to your model will no longer be stored as artifacts once your account hits the quota for Artifacts Stored, even if model training is ongoing

To increase your usage quota, consider upgrading your plan.

Compute Minutes Calculation

Compute Minutes are calculated using the following formula:
Real-time duration of training * Number of GPUs used * GPU Usage Multiplier = Compute Minutes,

where real-time duration of training is the number of minutes that the model trains for in real time, number of GPUs is the number of GPUs selected in running the workflow in Training Option : Hardware Acceleration, and the GPU Usage Multiplier is based on the type of GPU used, also selected in Training Option : Hardware Acceleration. The GPU usage multiplier for the types of GPUs offered is displayed below:

GPU TypeGPU SpecificationsGPU Usage Multiplier
Nvidia T4- 2560 CUDA Cores
- 16 GB Memory

Nvidia P100- 3584 CUDA Cores
- 16 GB Memory
3
Nvidia V100- 5120 CUDA Cores
- 16 GB Memory

Examples of Compute Minutes Calculations

The real-time training duration is multiplied with each of the multipliers to end up with the resulting compute minutes as shown below:

60Nvidia T41460 * 1 * 4 = 240
30Nvidia P1003230 * 3 * 2 = 180
