What does an H200 cost per hour?

No verified competitor rate cards for this card yet.

Why the big clouds cost several times more

AWS and Google Cloud price an H200 as part of a whole instance with committed capacity, enterprise support and reserved networking attached, and they hold that rate whether the card is busy or idle. Scalarware bills by the second against one balance, so an idle hour is an hour you do not pay for. The gap is a different purchasing model, not a better-negotiated version of the same one.

Where they win: if you need a signed enterprise SLA, in-region data residency guarantees, or tight VPC integration with services you already run there, buy from them. We do not offer those, and an hourly rate does not substitute for a compliance requirement.

How these numbers are gathered

Competitor figures are published rate cards, each carrying the source link and the date it was checked above — they are not scraped, because a silently broken parse would publish a wrong price, which is the one failure that would discredit every other number here. Scalarware's own rate is set from live market capacity measured hourly. Nothing on this page is estimated or modelled, and where a figure has not been verified the page says so instead of filling the gap.
