Accelerators, such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), are specialized hardware components that can significantly speed up machine learning and high performance computing workloads. When you create Compute Engine (VM) instances or other resources on Google Cloud, you can attach accelerators to them. For an overview of GPUs, see the GPUs on Compute Engine documentation.
The availability of specific GPU models varies by region and zone. This document provides a comprehensive list of accelerator availability to help you plan your deployments and select the appropriate locations for your resources.
This document focuses on accelerator availability for Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) , and AI Hypercomputer . If you use GPUs with other Google Cloud services, accelerator availability might differ. For those services, see the following documentation:
- Vertex AI: accelerator locations
- Cloud Run: regions that support GPUs
- Confidential Computing: zones that support GPUs
Zones that support GPUs
Google Cloud offers GPU resources in multiple locations worldwide. These locations consist of the standard regions and zones, which you can read about on the Regions and zones page. Each zone offers a variety of GPU versions. When you create resources that use accelerators—such as Compute Engine instances or GKE node pools—you must select a zone where that accelerator type is available.
GPU availability
The following sortable table lets you select different options to see where GPU resources are available. You can search by location, GPU machine type, or a combination of these. In the Select a GPU machine typelist, the machine types that have NVIDIA GPUs automatically attached show the GPU type in brackets.
