Vast Product Update

- Team Vast

August 32, 2023-GPU

As part of our commitment to outstanding customer service at Vast.ai, we are continually working to provide our users with the best possible product experience. An important aspect of that is making adjustments to functionality as soon as we become aware of opportunities for improvement. This means that Vast.ai customers get to enjoy a service that only grows better with time.

The occasional bug here and there is inevitable, so our first priority is to address any issues that have popped up since our last product update. Some of our latest fixes include the following:

  • Delete instance no longer auto-scrolls to the top
  • Stripe now works with SEPTA cards
  • Earnings page correctly displays transfers
  • New instance creation is prevented on occupied GPU
  • Reserved instances now show as reserved correctly
  • Interruptible instances display proper status
  • Host billing charts show correct amounts
  • Cloud sync rclone updating to show 100% complete upon success

NVIDIA Cloud GPU Updates

Another goal we strive toward in our product updates is delivering meaningful improvements to the platform itself. Below are some highlights of the latest capabilities that have been added to improve flexibility and overall performance:

  • New section for referral program to docs
  • Cancel button added for rclone
  • Template share link icon added to templates and confirmation dialog pop-up
  • Updated docs with API info, search, and better navigation
  • Added button to report a machine problem
  • Improved ranking system for popular templates
  • Refactored the host dashboard and search page, and restyled billing page
