L40S list-price median

The L40S list-price median is USD 1.57 per GPU-hour on 2026-10-24 (n=9 providers). Definition: The median, across N providers, of each provider's lowest on-demand list price per L40S GPU-hour, in USD excluding VAT; marketplaces, spot, community-cloud capacity and committed prices are excluded. N is in the value metadata and in the name.

Computed from the SKU state at the end of each UTC day (latest value: 2026-10-24; today's value is recomputed until the day ends). The constituents of the latest value are listed below; each shows when it was verified and links to its source.

Change over this window: -0.1% from 2026-10-19 to 2026-10-24 (like for like, on the constituents both days share).

Dashed lines with a diamond mark days on which the set of constituents (n) changed; a jump on such a day can be coverage, not a price move.

Definition

The median, across N providers, of each provider's lowest on-demand list price per L40S GPU-hour, in USD excluding VAT; marketplaces, spot, community-cloud capacity and committed prices are excluded. N is in the value metadata and in the name.

Inclusion rule

category gpu; GPU is L40S (vendor strings such as SXM/PCIe suffixes both count; NVL, MIG and CC variants excluded); on-demand list price only (spot, community, reserved/committed, dynamic rows skipped); price per GPU-hour = instance hourly price / gpu_count (a per-GPU price carried by the normalizer is used as is); per provider the lowest value, then the median across providers (mean of the two middle values for an even count). Not computed below 4 verified providers. EUR prices convert at the day's ECB rate; the EUR figure is in the metadata. Hyperscalers (oracle, azure, aws, gcp) are tagged. All series are excluding VAT: SKUs flagged vat_included are skipped.

When it cannot be computed: Not computed: that day shows no number and states the reason; the last full value stays shown with its date. A source whose last confirmed snapshot is older than 3x its cadence (6h sources 18 h, 12h sources 36 h, 1d sources 72 h) drops out; below minimum coverage the series is not computed and says 'not verified: <source> stale since <date>'.

Minimum coverage: 4 providers. Below that the series is not computed and says so instead of showing a number.

Sources feeding it

gpu/runpod, gpu/datacrunch, gpu/oracle, gpu/scaleway, gpu/ovhcloud, gpu/vultr-metal, first-party GPU price pages (page recipes)

Deliberately excluded

• gpumarket/* (Vast: marketplace, own series)
• spot, community-cloud, interruptible and committed prices
• NVL variants, MIG slices and confidential-compute (CC) variants
• instances whose GPU count is not stated
• SKUs flagged vat_included
• end-of-service SKUs

What can break it

• vendor labels differ per provider (SXM vs PCIe, generation suffixes) and are matched by pattern
• a provider changing the GPU count of a flavor
• FX moves on EUR-priced sources
• a provider dropping out (the statistic moves because the sample changed)
• it is not a transacted price
