| OpenStack cloud resource on local UPPMAX hardware. Not available for general SNIC users. Only available for researchers at Uppsala University of Technology. Shares the infrastructure with SNIC Science Cloud. | |||||||
| Pelle | UPPMAX | 100 | 4 000 | x 1000 core-h/month | Non-sensitive compute | ||
|
If you need more than 100,000 core-hours per month, contact UPPMAX support.
This UU-funded resource was installed in late 2024. It features standard compute nodes with 48 cores and 768 GB per node, many nodes with Nvidia T4 or L40s GPUs, and some nodes with Nvidia H100 GPUs. |

By default, data on Gorilla is not backed up. Place data in the "enable_backup" directory to enable backup for that data.
If you need more than 100TB storage, contact UPPMAX support for help.
Gorilla is a large and fast Ceph-based file system mounted on Pelle and Maja. |
