August 29, 2025 # Overview Key takeaways * Nebius provides just enough UI to launch basic GPU infra. They largely compete on price. * Managed k8s control plane is free (but you still need to add billing details) * Applications are deployed into managed infra -- bunch of stuff abstracted away here but it feels relatively clean & simple * The application framing is a little loose, e.g. you can deploy applications that cover vLLM (which then asks for a model), or models like DeepSeek-R1 (which bundles vLLM). I assume that most users don't have dozens of apps so this probably works just fine. # Pricing From https://nebius.com/prices ![[Pasted image 20250902154702.png]] ![[Pasted image 20250902154832.png]] ![[Pasted image 20250902154926.png]] ![[Pasted image 20250902154913.png]] # Product Info Architecture Major product concepts * Compute * Managed offerings: Kubernetes, Ray, Soperator, MLflow, PostgreSQL * Applications * Observability * Object Storage * Container Registry * Network ![[Pasted image 20250829154549.png]] Here's the left nav -- from an April video they recently added Managed Ray, Managed Soperator, and removed Managed Spark.
