External computing resources
In addition to the Ceres and Atlas clusters, there are external computing resources available to the SCINet community, including Amazon Web Services, XSEDE, and the Open Science Grid. These resources may be of interest to SCINet users that require:
- very large jobs (either numerous small jobs, or many nodes in parallel)
- special computing hardware requirements (e.g., GPUs, Xeon Phi, extremely-large memory)
- software that isn’t supported on Ceres (e.g., web apps, relational databases, VMs, Hadoop, Spark, certain commercial software)
