Liftr® Intelligence Compute Tracker℠

The Sundial | Liftr® Intelligence Compute Tracker℠ data identifies, catalogs, and compares public cloud service provider (CSP) compute instance types, prices, components and configurations. The basis for this data series is a monthly enumeration of Infrastructure-as-a-Services (IaaS) and bare metal types deployed by tracked CSPs, region by region around the world. The data contains over 2 million records spanning 46 months, with each row identifying a unique type configuration for a single CSP in a region.

Intelligence Compute Tracker℠ is hyper-focused on hyperscale AI. With 5 years of trends and comparable history, this data tracks the pulse of AI introductions, signals, underlying product details, and insights into the who/what/where of AI infrastructure. This data set leverages select AI accelerator data from Cloud Components Tracker℠, but adds layers of additional insight:

- Focused on AI training and inference semiconductors
- AI reservations, previews, and limited access types

AI-focused CSPs: CoreWeave, Lambda, Vultr

Fields:

- PIT Year: Point-in-time year in which row was collected
- PIT Month: Point-in-time month in which row was collected (a - 15th of the month, b - last day of the month; i.e., 11b is November 30th)
- PIT Quarter: Point-in-time calendar quarter in which the row was collected
- Month Part: Month part the row was collected (a - 15th of the month, b - last day of the month)
- CSP: Tracked public cloud service provider (CSP)
- CSP Ticker: Stock ticker of the CSP parent company
- Zone Count Sum: Count of CSP zones in a clustered region in which a CSP type and size is available (0-999)
- Physical Category: Top-level categorizations of CSP type (Dedicated Accelerator, Disaggregated Accelerator, Processor-Only)
- CPU Vendor: Data center processor chip vendor. For data center processors designed in-house by a CSP, this field lists the designing company
- CPU Ticker: Stock ticker of the CPU vendor (N/A: Disaggregated Accelerator Physical Category)
- CPU ISA: Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) used in a CPU (N/A: Disaggregated Accelerator Physical Category)
- Accel Type: Label indicating presence and type of a data center accelerator in a CSP type (CNA, FPGA, GPU, MORE, Transcoder). N/A -- Disaggregated Accelerator Physical Category)
- Accel Vendor: Data center accelerator chip vendor (N/A: Processor-Only Physical Category)
- Accel Ticker: Stock ticker of accel vendor (N/A: Processor-Only Physical Category)
- Accel Interconnect: The mechanism by which accelerators are attached to each other, and to related compute resources
- Deploy Status: Instance types listed as offered by CSPs, deployed by CSPs for customer use, or stated as Generally Available (GA) but without detailed listings
