Are multiple sessions allowed in one computer using Google Colab?

Does Google Colab allow to run multiple session simultaneously?

  1. Am I allowed to use multiple sessions if the GPU or CPU limit is not yet exceeded?
  2. Is it possible to use multiple accounts with one computer?

I can run 2 notebooks with the pro subscription + added GPU hours. That is, one with normal RAM and one with high ram seems to be the rule for it to work.

Yes, you can run multiple colab instances of the same Google account.

Also, you can use different google accounts with different browsers and their incognito ones to run as many colabs as you want.

Sign in to chrome with one google id. Sign in to Chrome incognito with another Google id. Use a different browser for the 3rd and 4th id.

If you keep running your instances for 3+ days, GPU allocation to your account will be stopped for a day or two and then you will have it back.
