Selecting Machine Types

With fal Cloud, you can choose different sizes of machines to run each of your models. You are charged only for what you use.

To use different types of machines:

$ vi models/orders_forecast.py

def model(dbt, fal):
    dbt.config(fal_environment="ml", fal_machine="GPU") # Add this line

    df: pd.DataFrame = dbt.ref("orders_daily")

The following options are available for the fal_machine argument:

Value	Description
XS	0.25 CPU cores, 256 mb RAM (default)
S	0.50 CPU cores, 1 gb RAM
M	2 CPU cores, 8 gb RAM
L	4 CPU cores, 32 gb RAM
XL	8 CPU cores, 128 gb RAM
