SNIC Science Cloud 2022

Decided

This round has been closed as all proposals have been handled.

The SNIC Science Cloud round is a round of SNIC Small type, for projects that require cloud och cloud-like services

This resource is intended only for scientific research not fit to run on traditional HPC-hardware.

Some examples of this but not limited to are HTC-applications, container pipeline workflows, interactive compute jobs or simple post processing and visualization tools.

SNIC Science Cloud allocations are made available via allocations expressed in terms of SNIC Coins.

Swedish Science Cloud (SSC) is a large-scale, geographically distributed OpenStack cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), intended for Swedish academic research provided by NAISS.

It is available free of charge to researchers at Swedish higher education institutions through open application procedures.

The SSC resources are not meant to be a replacement for NAISS supercomputing resources (HPC clusters). Rather, it should be seen as a complement, offering advanced functionality to users who need more flexible access to resources (for example more control over the operating systems and software environments), want to develop software as a service, or want to explore recent technology such as for “Big Data” (e.g. Apache Hadoop/Spark) or IoT applications.
