Evaluation and Pump Priming

Many of the facilities in the University Research Infrastructure Ecosystem are contribution-based, i.e., access is restricted to those research groups or schools which have contributed funds to the facility, in particular the CSF. Most services also have a limited free-at-point-of-use access option, including the CSF, Research Data Storage and Research Virtual Machines.

If you are considering making a larger contribution to the compute platforms then we can offer some short term access:

Evaluation and Pump Priming

If you would like to

  • evaluate one of the compute facilities before contributing funds or
  • you need to carry out some moderately-sized work in preparation for writing grant applications for funds which would be used to make a contribution to one of the facilities

please fill in our help form to arrange a meeting to discuss your requirements.
