| 1 | === How to get access to resources? === | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | [[image:image-20220408085758-1.png||style="float:right"]]Access to resources of the Fenix Infrastructure is **free of charge** and is provided through an **excellence-based** procedure, following the [[peer review principles>>https://prace-ri.eu/hpc-access/project-access/project-access-the-peer-review-process/]] which have been established by [[PRACE>>url:http://www.prace-ri.eu/]]. The respective allocation processes for available resources are handled by the user communities, and resources are provided to European scientists from all scientific domains. | ||

| 12 | === Which resources are available? === | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | The Fenix website provides an overview of which resources are available at which of the current five hosting sites: [[https:~~/~~/fenix-ri.eu/infrastructure/resources/available-resources>>https://fenix-ri.eu/infrastructure/resources/available-resources]] | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | The following different types of resources are offered ([[more info>>https://fenix-ri.eu/infrastructure/services]]): | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | * **Scalable Computing Services**: Massively parallel HPC systems that are suitable for highly parallel brain simulations or for high-throughput data analysis tasks. | ||
| 19 | * **Interactive Computing Services**: Quick access to single compute servers to analyse and visualise data interactively, or to connect to running simulations, which are using the scalable compute services. | ||
| 20 | * **Virtual Machine Services**: Service for deploying virtual machines (VMs) in a stable and controlled environment that is, for example, suitable for deploying platform services like the HBP Collaboratory, image services or neuromorphic computing front-end services. | ||
| 21 | * **Active Data Repositories**: Site-local data repositories close to computational and/or visualization resources that are used for storing temporary replicas of data sets. | ||
| 22 | * **Archival Data Repositories**: Federated data storage, optimized for capacity, reliability and availability that is used for long-term storage of large data sets which cannot be easily regenerated. These data stores allow the sharing of data with other researchers inside and outside of HBP. | ||

| 24 | Note that some of the resources at CSCS will be decommissioned in March 2023. |
