Is TPUv4 available?

[wok1909]

Hi,

I want to use TPUv4 in the Google cloud.

I have searched every region to see all the TPUs I can allocate.

I could only see TPUv2, TPUv3, TPUv5, and TPUv6 but no TPUv4.

Is there anyway I can use TPUv4?

Hi @wok1909, 

Welcome to Google Cloud Community! 

You can create TPU configurations in the zones shown in TPU regions and zones and as per documentation, TPU type (v4) is available in zone us-central2-b.

But as of now, you need to reach out to Google Cloud Support in order to enable this feature in your Project. You can check the key note in System architecture.

v4 chips are available in the us-central2-b zone, which is dedicated to the TRC Program (TPU Research Cloud). By joining the TRC Program, you can use up to 50 V4 chips for one month, https://sites.research.google/trc/about/
