High Performance Computing (HPC) uses specialist systems with large amounts of cores (CPU/GPU), lots of memory, fast interconnects and fast storage. They are mainly designed for intensive parallel processing workloads.

KATANA

Katana is our shared system and provides 35 Million SU per year. It is free to use by UNSW researchers and also has a buy-in model where additional compute and storage can be purchased by research groups and faculties.

GADI (NCI)

Research Technology Services manages the UNSW Resource Allocation Scheme, which provides millions of hours of compute time to over 100 research projects using Gadi, the world's 24th most powerful supercomputer.

Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing is a broad category of computing capabilities which can be combined in many different ways depending on the task. Like Lego blocks applications, websites, databases, storage and compute can be created and linked together as needed.

The Research Technology Services group helps facilitate computing on commercial cloud providers and the National eResearch Cloud.
