Node
Answer in brief
A node is one machine with several GPUs, eight in the usual H100 training server, rented and billed as a whole.
Node in practice
A per-GPU price for a node is the machine price divided by its GPUs. The hourly bill is that figure times the GPU count.
Rent a node when one job uses all its cards together. For less, look for a smaller machine.
