Picking cloud GPU provider for experiments

Looking for cheap one for few hours

Google Cloud https://cloud.google.com/compute/gpus-pricing

I have to figure out how to use this instance only for necessary training time, and automate its shutdown to reduce costs:

Lambda Labs instaces does not support instance shutdown, only termination, so first the data must be stored to some block storage.

AWS, Gcloud supports proper instance shutdown
