Alvis C3SE 124 960 1 000 80 000 GPU-h/month The Alvis resource is dedicated for AI/ML research.

The Alvis cluster is a national NAISS resource dedicated to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning research.

Note: Significant generation of training data is expected to be done elsewhere.

The system is built around Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) accelerator cards. The first phase of the resource has 160 NVIDIA T4, 44 V100, and 4 A100 GPUs. The second phase is based on 340 NVIDIA A40 and 336 A100 GPUs.

Kebnekaise HPC2N 531 5 200 x 1000 core-h/month Kebnekaise is, due to age, no longer available in SNIC rounds. HPC2N partner sites can apply for time in ‘HPC2N Local’ rounds.
Kebnekaise will, due to its age, not be available for SNIC/NAIS Medium/Small rounds after 2022-12-31. We have therefore deactivated these resources in the corresponding rounds. For HPC2N partner sites there is a possibility to apply for resources in the ‘HPC2N Local Compute/Storage’ rounds with the caveat listed on the resources in the Local rounds.

This resource is for access to the CPU nodes in Kebnekaise.

For GPU nodes see resource 'Kebnekaise GPU'.

For large memory nodes see resource 'Kebnekaise Large Memory'.

 

Kebnekaise is a heterogeneous computing resource currently consisting of: Notes:
  1. Access to the GPU nodes are handled through the 'Kebnekaise GPU' resource.
  2. Access to the Large Memory nodes are handled through the 'Kebnekaise Large Memory' resource.
  3. New nodes will be procured on a semi-regular basis.
Kebnekaise Large Memory HPC2N 51 5 40 x 1000 core-h/month Kebnekaise is, due to age, no longer available in SNIC rounds. HPC2N partner sites can apply for time in ‘HPC2N Local’ rounds.

Tetralith NSC 934 10 200 x 1000 core-h/month
Proposals will be evaluated within a few working days. Projects will receive a default 500 GiB storage allocation on Centre Storage at NSC. For additional storage, please apply for a Storage project.

Tetralith is a general computational resource hosted by NSC at Linköping University.

Tetralith servers have two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, providing 32 cores per server. 1844 of the servers are equipped with 96 GiB of primary memory and 64 servers with 384 GiB. All servers are interconnected with a 100 Gbit/s Intel Omni- Path network which is also used to connect the existing storage. Each server has a local SSD disk for ephemeral storage (approx. 200GiB per thin node, 900GiB per fat node). An IBM Spectrum Scale system comprises the centre storage. 170 of the Tetralith nodes are equipped with one NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU each as well as a high- performance NVMe SSD scratch disk of 2TB.

Dardel PDC 661 10 950 x 1000 core-h/month
Dardel is a Cray EX system from Hewlett Packard Enterprise, based on AMD EPYC processors with an accompanying Lustre storage system. The nodes are interconnected using Slingshot HPC Ethernet.
Rackham UPPMAX 2 968 10 1 500 x 1000 core-h/month Life science/big data/HTC compute resource
Life science/big data/HTC compute resource at UPPMAX. Mounts the Crex file system.

Rackham provides 9720 cores in the form of 486 nodes with two 10-core Intel Xeon V4 CPUs each. 4 fat nodes have 1 TB of memory, 32 fat nodes have 256 GB, and the rest have 128 GB. The interconnect is Infiniband.
