Free VPS with 5G RAM and 2vCPU VPS. Root Access

Deepnote is a collaborative data notebook for Python, SQL, and no-code analysis. It runs in the cloud and connects securely to any data source.

In this post, I am gonna show you some interesting usage for Deepnote’s free plan VPS.

Free Plan

For individual data scientists who want to experience the power of Deepnote.

• Up to 3 editors
• Up to 5 projects
• Unlimited Basic machines with 5GB RAM
• 2vCPU
• 7 day revision history

Register an account

No credit card, no work email required. You can use any email address to register an account as long as you can verify it.

By default it already has some demo project installed in your account. You can click Run notebook button to start it. Here is a example project “Plato’s Pizza Sales”

Performance Test

Once you have your project running, you can create a terminal session to have root access to the machine.

From the terminal, we can run a script to test the performance and see the system specs as well.

Github: https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script/blob/master/yabs.sh

The script might take 20-30 minutes to get all testing done, depending on VM’s performance. you wll get a score for single core and multi core:

apt update -y && apt install -y curl wget sudo
curl -sL yabs.sh | bash

Environment Settings

In case your machine will be stopped by Deepnote automatically in 15 minutes, you can change it to maximum 24 hours.

That is maximum hours you can have for free plan. Basically here, we got a 5G RAM , 2vCPU VPS to use for 24 hours.
