I need to find out to place my dataset in GCS in the same zone so that I avoid charges when running training on TPU's and reading large datasets from GCS.
Does anyone know how to find out current Google Colab instance zone?
The data should be stored in a bucket that is in the same zone as the Cloud TPU (or the same region if that specific zone isn't available); to the best of my knowledge Colab itself doesn't play a role in the situation.
