Paperspace

Paperspace is a GPU cloud platform for AI, ML, and 3D rendering workloads, acquired by DigitalOcean in 2023. The platform combines on-demand GPU/CPU machines (Core), the Gradient ML workflow stack (Notebooks, Datasets, Models, Workflows), and container-as-a-service Deployments under a single team-scoped REST API at api.paperspace.com/v1. Compute is billed per second across H100, A100, A6000, V100, A5000, A4000, and P6000 SKUs, with Bearer-token authentication using team-scoped API keys.

Paperspace Networking API

Networking primitives for Paperspace — private networks (VPCs) for east-west machine-to-machine traffic and a claim-assign-release lifecycle for public IPv4 addresses.

Paperspace Storage API

Storage primitives — shared drives attached to a private network, machine snapshots with point-in-time restore, and external storage provider credentials (S3, GCS, Azure Blob) p...

Paperspace Templates and Startup Scripts API

OS templates, custom user-created machine templates, and startup scripts (with assign/unassign to machines) used to configure freshly provisioned Paperspace machines.

Paperspace Container Registries API

Manage container registry credentials used by Paperspace Deployments to pull private images, including a test-connection endpoint that verifies the configured credentials.

Paperspace Models API

Register and manage trained ML models in the Paperspace Gradient model registry. Models can be associated with projects and consumed by Deployments.

Paperspace Team and Authentication API

Session lookup (`/auth/session`), team-member roster with admin-status mutation, team-member removal, and the team-scoped secrets surface used to share credentials across projec...
