Servers for AI/Automated Trading

I know there are a lot of different servivce providers for this, but I'm having an automated trading platform built for me with AI. There will be large amounts of data being processed to obtain historical data for training and then collection of real-time data moving forward, etc..

any thoughts on server's to use? I was considering AWS or Google Cloud, but maybe there are other ones that people like more for whatever reason?

Any recommendations would be great, thanks.

 

the more you spend the better it will be except for the logic - which money can not buy...

 

While our political views are polar opposities, this is a perspective we can agree on.

@LiquidMike
Your pre-processing data model will make all the difference, just using buzzwords and throwing money at it isn't gonna do much.

 

is this a trading platform or research platform? just buy the data from @Databento
I bet you could do it all on a local desktop; if you max out then look elsewhere. something with gpus, spark like capabilities (ie. databricks).

 

I suggest to first determine exactly what you need in terms of compute, memory, etc. and then use the pricing calculators provided by the various cloud providers. Typically, the system for research has different needs/specs than the one for live execution.

 

Geezus, can't you folks just answer the OP's question, namely what VPS is recommended for his AI??

 

There's no way to answer this without far more information. Hardware requirements for "AI" are highly varied and highly dependent on the model. All major cloud providers can support "most" models anyone might dream up, but there are a lot of details here.

I realize I may be making some unfounded assumptions here, but based only on the info in this post, I think you are wasting your money.

 

Yes, very true... that's something I've asked my programmer to try and estimate - so working on that. It's a combo of research (historical analysis) and then real-time trading (which won't be as taxing on the system)

 

that's the nature of these forums.. 20% of the people will respond with real answers, the rest just troll or have responses that aren't helpful.

But to their defense on this one.. I need to have the metrics on data usage in order to get a great answer.. but I'm sure people on here know which systems are good and have been used for similar projects that they've done.. so hopefully a good answer at some point

I understand the nature of your response, but I currently make 8% to 10% monthly with automated trading... without the AI - so.. I believe I can improve that... so definitely not a waste of my money.
