7.0

What’s New 🚀

Introducing Projects and Experiments

We're over the moon to introduce Gradient projects and experiments in 7.0. Create a project when you need to deliver a machine learning idea from start to finish – and keep track of every nook and cranny in between.

Run experiments in your projects to train machine learning models on our powerful hardware or in the public cloud with only a couple clicks.

Either set up a standalone Paperspace project, or connect with an existing GitHub repository.

Bring Paperspace to GitHub with GradientCI

You can run an experiment manually on our app, through our CLI, or through our brand-new GitHub bot, GradientCI. Our lovely continuous integration service works on top of your Git repository, triggering experiments whenever you commit code or open pull requests against your default branch.

Multinode Experiments

Training machine learning models on multiple processing units is here! Look out for an in-depth blog post coming for multinode training.

Custom Metrics for Jobs

Graph custom metrics for jobs by instrumenting your job code. With our StatsD wrapper—housed within the Python SDK—you can specify custom metric names and values. When building your Gradient job, you'll be asked for any custom metrics. Once your job is running, the "Metrics" tab will show you time series graphs reflecting your instrumentation.

Native App – Mouse Capture Improvements

Some games weren't jiving well with our VM mouse input. Now, if you turn on USB Mouse Emulation in Settings, you should be good to go! We also now support mouse capture, for those of you playing immersive 3D games. Just turn on "Allow VM to Move Mouse."

What’s New 🚀

Sign in or Sign Up with GitHub

Sign up for Paperspace or sign in to your existing account simply and securely with your GitHub credentials! Existing users can sign in with your verified GitHub credentials and your Paperspace account with the same email address with sync. You can connect your verified GitHub account in the Account section of the Console as well. See Known Issues below for restrictions on the first version of this feature.

Gradient

📈System Metrics: System metrics are live in the Console! When you run a job, you can view your metrics in real time under the Metrics tab of the job.

Docker Images

BYO-Docker image! Using the CLI, you can now:

  • Create a docker container, run it, and push it to Docker Hub,
  • Create the container, not run and still push to Docker Hub, or
  • Simply run your own container on Paperspace without pushing to DH.

Read more in the documentation here.

Native App

Multi-monitor support for dedicated GPUs: You can finally enjoy double the screen space with dedicated GPU VMs in the native app. Note that enabling dual monitors on these machines (P4000, P5000, P6000) can take a few minutes the first time you do so.

SAML (SSO)

🔐Allows team admins to register their own identity providers and register with our application. This is an enterprise feature, if you’d like it enabled for your account please contact your account manager or the sales team.

API Highlights

  • Run gradient jobs from custom Dockerfile built containers
  • Push GPU-enabled container images to a registry of your choice
  • Add support for yarn package manager

Read the full API release notes here.

Other notable improvements

Various forms through the Console have gotten some updates, so they function more smoothly and look better across various browsers and devices.

Bug Fixes 🐛

Receipts were not being sent to all customers at the time of machine creation. This has been resolved. If you need a receipt please contact the support team to have one generated for you.

Various bug fixes through the Console

Known Issues

The Paperspace app does not currently support logging in with GitHub.

6.8

What’s New

  • Gradient
    • Low-cost (preemptible) instances in Gradient: You can now run jobs and notebooks on our new preemptible instances! You can run jobs or notebooks for up 65% cheaper with the chance that the job or notebook can be preempted. Learn more here.
    • SSL for Notebooks: Instead of getting an IP address, you’ll get a secure web address to access your Notebook. When you click Open on your Notebook, you’ll be taken directly to the web address, and it’s also available in the UI to copy.
    • Notebooks Display: Instead of a listing each restart of a Notebook, you’ll see only the most recent version of your Notebook. We’ve also added the option to fork the notebook.
  • Core
    • QUIC: QUIC streaming is now an option that can be enabled in the native app on any VM.
  • API

 

6.7

What’s New:

        • Share resources like machines, notebooks, jobs, and storage
        • Consolidate billing for your team and manage your subscriptions in one place
      • “Paperspace for Teams” is now Paperspace for Business. Business Teams will maintain all of their existing infrastructure (private networks, shared drives, VPNs, etc) and changes to Teams will not appear in their or their users’ accounts. Users can still request the Business feature from the Core section of the Console.
      • Gradient
        • Gradient Private Cloud: Install the Gradient Node binary or docker container to get started with Gradient Private Cloud. Check out the docs here.
        • Notebooks
          • New fast.ai Notebook Template for fast.ai 1.0. The new template is available in the Notebooks section of Gradient and is designed for the latest Fast.ai course. The new container is built on PyTorch 1.0
          • Auto-shutdown on Notebooks is now customizable. You can select from 8 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week, or disable it entirely (Note: this feature is only available for G1/T1 subscription tiers and higher.)
      • New Machine Learning in a Box Template! The new template is available on 18.04 Linux MLIAB machines created as of this release. See the updates to the templates here.
      • Added the option to release a Public IP from the same window as deleting a machine. The IP can also still be released from the Public IP section or saved for later use.
      • Native App: 
        • UDP / QUIC streaming for the native app: We've implemented QUIC, a UDP-based network protocol for a more responsive and latency free stream. For now, UDP is currently only available for any VM with a Public IP and will be the default setting.
        • Super Responsive Mode. Allows users to configure how long the app should wait for a later frame to arrive before it drops it and moves on to the next one.
          Please Note: In Super Responsive Mode there is a continuous stream even if the screen is idle. This could be costly if you don’t have unlimited internet/tiered bandwidth.

Bug Fixes

      • Fixed an issue with the auto-shutdown script for 16.04 Linux machines
      • Overall reliability and security fixes

        • Custom Notebooks Containers: Build your own Docker imagine and run it on Paperspace! Get all the details here.
        • Save your Notebook Container: Prior to version 6.6,  Paperspace saved notebook contents, but not the notebook environment (configuration with libraries, custom packages, etc). Now we preserve the entire thing!
        • ‘Clone’ replaced by ‘Start’ button in the console
      • Jobs
        • You can now preview images in the Workspace file browser

        • Gradient Persistent storage is accessible from Paperspace Linux VMs created as of this release.

      • Core
        • If you leave your hourly VM running for longer than 24 hours, you’ll get a friendly reminder email. This feature currently applies to individual users only (not team admins or team members). Users will receive one email for each length of time in which the uptime is greater than 24 hours. (ex. A machine that is on for one week will receive one email, not seven.)
      • General
        • All cryptocurrency mining has been restricted on Paperspace to protect our users (by deterring hackers from compromising user accounts and using Paperspace to fraudulently mine), and to comply with other cloud providers' terms of service.

Bug Fixes

      • Fixed an issue with auto-shutdown on Linux headless machines
      • Fixed an issue affecting Windows native app users where installing the USB redirection driver resulted in an error. New functionality of the feature gives users the ability to install and uninstall it, and will result in fewer issues.
