Special terms for educational institutions

Yandex Cloud offers a free tier for educational institutions and scientific projects. You can learn more about this program here.

The following limits apply to DataSphere communities created under the Computer Science Program to Promote Education and Research:

• The use of high-performance computing resource configurations is limited.
• You cannot change the project storage size.
• You cannot update certain project runtime parameters.
• You cannot create clusters from Yandex Data Processing templates.
• You cannot deploy models using nodes and aliases.

All the above limits are marked with a special icon in the interface.

If you need to switch to the full-featured DataSphere version, you can do that without creating a new community. In this case, all resources, projects, and computations will be retained, while the free tier mode restrictions will be removed. To switch to the full-featured version, contact your educational institution supervisor or the support team.
