Jarvis Labs is a startup that provides GPU compute to data scientists and students, particularly in India. With a solid selection of GPUs that represent good value for the performance, Jarvis Labs is off to a good start helping users take advantage of GPU compute with minimal headache.
While Paperspace and Jarvis share the goal of helping users get up and running with cloud GPUs quickly, Paperspace offers a large number of options, features, and configurations that Jarvis does not offer.
Jarvis asks users to fill and recharge a wallet with a set amount of funds to power GPU machines. With Paperspace you can set maximum spending limits, which accomplish the same thing, but you don't have to prepay. In this way Paperspace is much more flexible to your changing GPU compute needs.
Most Jarvis users are running Jupyter notebooks in the Jarvis console. While vanilla Jupyter notebooks are useful (Paperspace has an option enable vanilla Jupyter), Gradient Notebooks from Paperspace offer a number of extended features related to GPU selection, data ingress/egress, and so forth. In other words, Paperspace has all the Jarvis functionality and much more.
Jarvis is designed to help spin-up a cloud GPU quickly and easily -- but that's a different concern than scale. Paperspace is designed to fit developers and teams from early prototyping stages all the way to production.
Although Jarvis Labs does a good job of onboarding new cloud GPU users into a simple-to-get-started Jupyter notebook, Paperspace adds a level of scalability and configuration that is only matched by the big cloud providers. Paperspace is advantaged by years of operating high-performance GPU data centers and a vertically integrated software stack that makes it easy to get something as simple as a GPU server running Ubuntu or as complicated as a private cluster for multi-GPU inference.
