Instance Overview and Management

On My Deployments page, you can manage all your instances.

1. Instance overview

The instances are listed by status — Running, Snapshotting, or Released — along with their ID, Name, Cost, and available Actions.

• Running – The instance is active and accessible, billed per usage time.

• Snapshotting – The instance is creating a snapshot and is temporarily unavailable. No additional fees are charged during this process.

• Released – The instance has been terminated and its resources reclaimed. It cannot be restarted, and no further charges apply.

2. Instance Details

Click the arrow icon on the right to expand the instance details and access management options.

Access

SSH (Port 22)

SSH connection details:

• SSH Command: ssh -p <Service Port> root@<Access URL>

• Service Port: Port assigned to this instance

• User: root (default)

• Password: Initial password (masked)

HTTP (Port 8888)

Runs JupyterLab by default. Click Open to access the instance directly.

• Link – View the HTTP address

• Open – Launch the link in a new browser tab

• Copy – Copy the URL

• Edit – Modify port settings (if available)

• Delete – Remove the configuration

New Port Forwarding

Click New Port Forwarding to add a rule:

• Service Port – Enter the port number

• Protocol – Select the protocol (default TCP). For web apps (e.g., JupyterLab, Dashboards), enable HTTPS for secure browser access.

Billing

All billing information and cost details associated with the instance.

Config

Detailed configuration parameters of the instance.

Hardware

Detailed hardware specifications of the instance, including GPU and CPU models, GPU count, GPU memory, system RAM, and storage capacity.

3. Instance Management (Running State)

Take a snapshot of the current instance

You can create a snapshot of the current instance to preserve its full system state and file changes (not those in Data Hub). The snapshot includes installed packages, configurations, and all directory-level modifications. You can later use this snapshot as a template to quickly launch new instances without repeating the setup process.

❕During snapshot creation, the instance is temporarily inaccessible, so it’s recommended to create a snapshot before releasing it.

Click Take Snapshot and enter the required details

• Name – Specify a name for the snapshot.

• Auto-release after saving – If enabled, the instance will be automatically released once the snapshot is complete; otherwise, it will return to the Running state.

Release the current instance

Releasing an instance frees its resources and changes its status to Released. Use this option when the instance is no longer needed, as it stops billing and reclaims allocated resources.

Click Release.

Click Stop & Release to confirm your action.

The status transitions from Releasing to Released. Instances in the Released state cannot be restarted. To create a new instance from a saved environment, select a Snapshot during instance creation.
