The high-performance computing services for EBRAINS include:

• Scalable Computing Services, massively parallel HPC systems that can, e.g., be used for large-scale simulations or heavy machine-learning workloads.
• Interactive Computing Services that allow the use of high-end single compute servers, e.g., to analyse and visualise data interactively or to connect to running simulations, which use scalable computing services.
• Storage
   

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.
