SCARF
SCARF is an HPC (High Performance Computing) cluster hosted at STFC’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory.
IRIS Tools and Services Portfolio
Through previous investments IRIS has access to a wide variety of tools, services and resources for it’s community.
These tools and services are delivered free at the point of use but resource allocations will still need to be approved by the IRIS Resource Allocation Panel or Directors where relevant.
Compute Resources
GridPP
The GridPP Collaboration provides high throughput computing resources to particle physics communities.
Imperial College IRIS Cloud
The Imperial College IRIS Cloud is an Openstack based cluster run as an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
STFC Cloud
The STFC Cloud is a dedicated cloud infrastructure which provides access to elastic compute resources for users across the facilities provided by STFC and partner organisations.
