Systems

LCRC resources include mid-range supercomputers, visualization clusters, and advanced data storage systems.

Purchasing Resources

LCRC has the ability to host dedicated nodes and storage for users/groups that require large amounts of resources to advance their research.

Such users can contact LCRC (support@lcrc.anl.gov) to discuss their computing requirements and the anticipated time-frame for setting up these dedicated computational resources. Users/groups purchasing additional nodes can still apply for time on the shared LCRC computing resources.

Several node types can be purchased, including Broadwell nodes, nodes with accelerators, and nodes with large amounts of memory.
