The high-performance computing services for EBRAINS include:

• Scalable Computing Services
  • Massively parallel HPC systems that are suitable for high-throughput data analysis tasks.
• Interactive Computing Services
  • Quick access to single compute servers or to connect to running simulations using the scalable compute services.
• Active Data Repositories
  • Site-local data repositories close to computational and/or visualization resources that are used for storing temporary replicas of data sets. 
• Archival Data Repositories
  • Federated data storage, optimized for capacity, reliability, and availability is used for the long-term storage of large data sets. 

Currently, we have in-kind resources available for EBRAINS users at:

• CINECA: Galileo100 (scalable + interactive)
  • 3 M core-h, for EBRAINS members (developers) only
• JSC: JUSUF Cluster (available until 03/25)
  • core-h according to availability 
     

Further HPC resources are available through regular national calls at:

• France: CEA
• Germany: JSC
• Italy: CINECA 
• Switzerland: CSCS 
   

In most cases, a prerequisite for the national calls is that the PI be affiliated with an academic institution located in the same country as the hosting site.
