High performance computing and data analytics

As machine learning and artificial intelligence become integral to modern research, the need for High Performance Computing (HPC) and advanced computational approaches is growing.

Our platforms deliver a mix of traditional HPC offerings alongside cloud environments, programmable infrastructure, and specialised data science capabilities.

Researchers can use our platforms to analyse massive datasets, train complex models, and accelerate science impact.

Our HPC platform enables you to:

• access high-performance CPUs, specialised GPUs, and high-memory nodes

• work interactively using OnDemand to access Jupyter Notebooks, containers, and virtual lab environments

• bring your own code or access our extensive software library -- already built and compiled, ready for you to use

• scale your code and expand your projects

We provide tools and services to help you get your data onto the HPC platform, store it close to the compute, process and analyse your datasets, and share it with colleagues.

We support data-centric and data-intensive projects in all domains, whether you’re investigating climate change, human and taonga species genomics, innovations in materials surfaces and structures, seismic modelling, or national responses to a pandemic.

We also strive to support FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reproducible) and CARE (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics) principles in data and research software.

With an account, you can:

• Understand how HPC can apply to your work
  Researchers new to HPC are encouraged to test the suitability of our platforms for your project. You can also chat with our team of experts.

• Scale up & supercharge your research
  We support researchers investigating complex science challenges or building future-focused solutions that enable Aotearoa New Zealand’s prosperity.

• Advance postgraduate research
  Students at New Zealand institutions can use our platforms to support their research degree and make positive impacts on society.

• Support commercial research & development
  Private industry and commercial organisations conducting research can tap into our resources via a Subscription contract .
