Hi,
I recently looked at creating my own VM using:
P4d.24xlarge instance type
x8 Tesla A100’s
96 CPU’s to help increase my hash rate of mining Ethereum with AWS.
I was met with an issue to advise I would not be able to secure this apparently due to the following reason:
“EC2 service team has informed, they will not be able to approve this limit increase as per this moment. The reason why the quota increase was denied is related to a rapid increase in the customer's demand for our high-performance GPU instances, over the last few months, that is surpassing our availability.”
I was pretty sure Amazon does have this available but due to maybe being a new customer they wouldn’t allow me to use this set up? Maybe I have to build a track record with them or something but it’s really frustrating trying to get any decent GPU along with CPU set up with AWS that’s cost effective to mine crypto with them.
Any help or advise on this knowledge would be really appreciated.
Thanks
Mikey
