Hyperstack (NexGen Cloud)
Cost-sensitive teams who still want a real datacentre rather than a marketplace host.
medium portability Movable with effort. Expect to redo images, storage wiring and networking.

Verified 2026-09-09. Fields reading “not published” are exactly that — we do not estimate a figure a vendor withholds.
The counterparty
Small, private, young.
A multi-year GPU commitment is a credit decision wearing a cloud contract. This is the section no benchmark covers and the one that decides what happens to your workload in 2028.
The catch
Less well known, so less community knowledge when something breaks at 2am.
The economics
Prices meaningfully below the hyperscalers, above the marketplaces. That middle band is a legitimate place to sit.
No rate is quoted on this page on purpose. Published list prices at this layer move weekly and essentially nobody signing a real contract pays them. Dated, sourced figures live in the GPU cost calculator, where the cheapest and dearest published on-demand price for the identical H100 sit 5.6× apart.
The layers underneath this one
Whatever you rent here is a chip in a building that needs power. In 2026 megawatts, not silicon, are the binding constraint on the whole industry — a frontier rack draws 120–200 kW against a 2026 average near 27 kW, and the US interconnection queue exceeds 2,600 GW.
