QRISCloud

The service catalogue of offerings from QRIScloud is found here:

https://www.qriscloud.org.au/index.php/services

 QRISCloud will need more information of the researcher's computations before approval:

• The topic / field or research
• The software (applications, etc) to be run
• The dimensions of computation: how much memory, how many cores, MPI or not, how many jobs, walltimes, etcetera.

If lots of memory is needed, options are the large memory nodes or flashlite.

• Special compute "big memory" nodes will go to ~900GB (virtualized)
• Flashlite physical nodes go to 512GB (non-virtualized)
• Using vSMP, multiple Flashlite nodes can be stitched together to form a "supernode" with up to 8TB.

Computing Cluster: Bunya
