ForHLR II in Karlsruhe officially started

Since March 2016, a new HPC resource is available to scientists in Baden-Württemberg through the "ForHLR II" high performance compute cluster in Karlsruhe at KIT.

While the bwForCluster NEMO and its siblings are entry-level HPC resources, the "ForHLR II" represents the next level for advanced HPC users. As such, for requesting compute resources, a detailed application is required. This application will undergo a full scientific review process.

The new ForHLR II also has a compute partition with GPU co-processors.

For further details (in German language), please consult this page.

For more technical details, and more importantly, for information on how to access the resources once they become generally available, please take a look at the bwHPC Wiki.
