Persona quote
I am a resource provider
”Our newly deployed testbed, ACES, enables applications and workflows to dynamically integrate the different accelerators, memory and in-network computing protocols. Users with hybrid programming models will be able to quickly and efficiently process large amounts of data.”
– HONGGAO LIU Executive Director of High Performance Research Computing

How do I integrate my resource into ACCESS?
ACCESS uses an Integration Roadmaps Framework to define how operators can integrate classes of infrastructure into the ACCESS environment. Current integration options include:
High-Performance Computing
High-performance computing clusters are used by logging in to front-end nodes, installing application software, and running batch computing jobs under a scheduler. These compute resources may include GPUs, and always provide some tightly coupled local storage.
Storage
Storage resources are used to store and manage large amounts of data.

Cloud Infrastructure
Cloud infrastructure is used by launching and running virtual machines or containers.
Science Gateways
Websites / portals where researchers can run high-level computational science applications without having to directly interact with low level compute, storage, or cloud resources or request ACCESS allocations.
