Introduction
TBD - detailed docs for the new systems are being written by the Research Support National Team.
Compute
| Name | Description | Approximate Capacity | Availability |
| GP1 | cloud | 6,000 cores (VM's can be oversubscribed) | Aug.31, 2016 (integrated with west.cloud) |
| GP2 | general-purpose cluster (serial and small parallel jobs) | 25,000 cores | February, 2017 |
| GP3 | general-purpose cluster (serial and small parallel jobs) | 25,000 cores | May, 2017 |
| LP | a cluster designed for large parallel jobs | 60,000 cores | Summer, 2017 |
| Available software |
Storage (National Storage Infrastructure)
The National Storage Infrastructure will have 2 components:
| Object Storage |
A fully distributed object storage system spanning all 4 sites, with geo-redundancy, replication and universal access. |
| Long-term File Storage |
Long-term file storage sites (similar to Silo) at SFU and the University of Waterloo. Each site will have tape backup. |
Patrick Mann (talk) 15:26, 23 September 2016 (UTC) Note that due to Silo decommissioning Dec.31/2016 it will be necessary to provide interim storage while the NSI is developed. See [Migration2016:Silo] for details.
