Summary

Machine-generated summary

University of Galway awarded contract CON1591/2023 on 21 July 2026 for EUR 6,398,400. The contract buys access to a specialist high performance computing infrastructure and technical support for Irish researchers. The national HPC service reached end of life in November 2023, so compute cycles and storage were tendered on equivalent foreign systems run by LuxProvide. ICHEC allocates resources to researchers based on scientific and technical review and is invoiced for actual usage until the new Irish platform is commissioned.

Description

The infrastructure providing the national High Performance Computing (HPC) service to Irish researchers reached end of life in Nov 2023. A replacement system was not available in time and so to maintain computational capability for Irish researchers it was necessary to tender for compute cycles and storage space on equivalent foreign HPC systems which can offer users a familiar environment and enhanced capability for the interim period while the new Irish platform is procured and commissioned. The services provided via this contract (CON1591/2023) are access to a specialist HPC infrastructure and technical support. Researchers are then allocated resources on this platform by ICHEC based on a scientific and technical review of proposals and ICHEC is invoiced by LuxProvide for the amount of storage and compute resources actually used.
