Get New, Powerful, High-Performance Computing!

We have some exciting news for researchers! The Center for Marine Science, Information Technology Services, and the Office of Research and Innovation have joined forces with North Carolina State University to provide access to high-performance computing (HPC) resources. This partnership means that faculty and their students can access computing power with storage to facilitate more simulations and faster results.

High-Performance Computing Benefits Your Research!

Access to the new high-performance computing solution, featuring a large cluster of more than 500 nodes and over 10,000 cores, offers numerous benefits.

• Complete resource-intensive tasks, like simulations, data analysis, and processing of large datasets faster than on traditional computing systems.
• Get access to 1GB of directory space, 1TB of project storage space, and 10TB of temporary scratch space.
• Maximizes productivity & efficient resource allocation by submitting jobs to queues based on a fair share scheduling algorithm.
• Additional equipment can be purchased by faculty to receive priority access to your dedicated node or nodes.
• Utilizes UNCW’s single sign-on & 2-Factor Authentication for a consistent login experience.
• Ensures data privacy & safeguards the integrity & confidentiality of your data by treating all data as highly sensitive from a secure facility.
• Securely transfers data sets & protects them from unauthorized access by leveraging the cluster’s Secure Copy Protocol, Secure File Transfer Protocol, and/or Globus.
