Providers with GPUs in Japan
What affects latency to Japan
Latency to a GPU in Japan is set mostly by two things: the physical distance between you and the datacenter, and the network path your traffic takes to get there, not by which provider operates the box. Two providers in the same city will generally perform about the same for a given connection; a provider on the other side of the planet will not, no matter how it's priced.
Listings in Japan on Aquanode's marketplace currently span: Japan, Tokyo. If you're latency-sensitive, pick the offer closest to where your traffic actually originates rather than assuming every listing under "Japan" is equally close. We don't publish a millisecond figure here because it depends on your own network path. Run your own latency test against a specific offer before committing to it for a latency-sensitive workload.
Data protection law in Japan
Personal data handled in Japan falls under the Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI), administered by the Personal Information Protection Commission.
This describes the external legal regime in Japan, not a claim that Aquanode is certified or audited against it. Sources: Personal Information Protection Commission, Japan (APPI).
Capacity in any one region can dry up. A stopped box is tied to the machine it ran on, so if that GPU gets rented while you are away, it can come back with no GPU at all, RunPod documents this case. On Aquanode you can pause a box here and resume it in a different region or on a different provider, workspace intact, instead of being stuck waiting on one datacenter.
How this price is calculated
Every price on this page is a per-GPU hourly rate, normalized the same way as every other pricing surface on Aquanode using each offer's authoritative GPU count, so that raw price is divided by the number of GPUs it actually covers; Akash reports its price as already per-GPU, so it is used as listed. An offer with a missing, zero, or invalid GPU count is excluded rather than published at a guessed rate.
No offers were excluded from this snapshot for a missing or invalid price. No offers were dropped as price outliers in this snapshot.
Japan covers these locations in the marketplace feed: Japan, Tokyo. Locations whose label is ambiguous (for example the bare code "CA", which may mean California or Canada) are deliberately not assigned to any region page rather than guessed at. Only the cheapest qualifying offer per GPU model is listed above, and this page regenerates at most once per hour.
