9live vs E2E Networks
E2E Networks is an established Indian cloud provider with competitively priced virtual machines and a strong GPU catalogue. As infrastructure-as-a-service, it gives you machines and leaves the platform, databases, backups and monitoring to you. 9live is a managed layer: dedicated compute, operated databases and support in one fixed plan, also hosted in India.

- Your team is small and focused on the product.

Questions
Is 9live built on E2E Networks?
No. 9live runs on hardware we operate directly. Both companies host in India, which is why the comparison comes up.
Can we use E2E for GPUs and 9live for the application?
Yes. Several AI teams run inference on a GPU provider and the application, database and queues on 9live.
