Can you recommend a tutorial or something that explains the steps to move from (e.g. pytorch) training on your own machine to training that model in the Cloud (e.g. AWS)? What type of instances to chose, how/where to store data, making sure Nvidia/CUDA stuff is working properly, etc.?

Same as running on your own machine.

Just look up a EC2 or VM that has the gpu you want and there you go. nvidia-smi is the command that should tell you the gpu you have. It's working if it outputs the GPU you have. I would suggest checking in the code if CUDA is running.

I prefer to use a EC2 or VM because it's normally cheaper, but you have to do your own research on pricing. Cloud is a competitive market, so there is always someone ready to offer a A100 at a cheaper price. Lambda Cloud I heard was super cheap for on demand.
