High performance computing and data analytics

Use our platforms to analyse massive datasets, train complex models, and accelerate science impact.

As machine learning and artificial intelligence become integral to modern research, the need for High Performance Computing (HPC) and advanced computational approaches is growing.  

Our platforms deliver a mix of traditional HPC offerings alongside cloud environments, programmable infrastructure, and specialised data science capabilities.  

Researchers can use our platforms to analyse massive datasets, train complex models, and accelerate science impact 

What's available?

Our HPC platform enables you to: 

  • access high-performance CPUs, specialised GPUs, and high-memory nodes  

  • work interactively using OnDemand to access Jupyter Notebooks, containers, and virtual lab environments 

  • bring your own code or access our extensive software library -- already built and compiled, ready for you to use  

  • scale your code and expand your projects 

We provide tools and services to help you get your data onto the HPC platform, store it close to the compute, process and analyse your datasets, and share it with colleagues. 

Our Flexible High Performance Cloud and interactive cloud-native environments mean we can also offer: 

  • Virtual machines optimised for high-performance computational needs 

  • Tailored operating systems, either ready-to-use or customised images you create and can contribute to a pool of community-developed images  

  • cloud native services on open-source container platform Kubernetes 

  • partnership-led approaches to enabling data sovereignty 

  • tailored institutional eResearch platforms (private clouds) 

  • opportunities for shared investment and benefits at national scale, including dedicated hardware tenancies with deep local integration  

Is it for me?

We support data-centric and data-intensive projects in all domains, whether you’re investigating climate change, human and taonga species genomics, innovations in materials surfaces and structures, seismic modelling, or national responses to a pandemic.  

We also strive to support FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reproducible) and CARE (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics) principles in data and research software.  

With an account, you can: 

  • Scale up & supercharge your research 
    We support researchers investigating complex science challenges or building future-focused solutions that enable Aotearoa New Zealand’s prosperity 

  • Advance postgraduate research 
    Students at New Zealand institutions can use our platforms to support their research degree and make positive impacts on society
