Abstract

The Centre for Digital Humanities Uppsala (CDHU) releases periodic calls for Pilot Project Support, an initiative that provides free technical and methodological support as well as computational resources for Uppsala affiliated research projects in the humanities and social sciences. This present SNIC project proposal aims at improving CDHU's infrastructure, in collaboration with UPPMAX, so that the center can provide improved support to pilot projects in need of flexible cloud resources. This includes, but is not necessarily limited to, the development of SaaS applications, running online platforms like Recogito or Scalar and hosting interactive computational notebooks. The administration of cloud instances, as well as allocation of resources to different pilot projects within our quota, will be handled internally and mainly by the Research Engineers employed at CDHU assigned as co-investigators of the SNIC project.
