Research Computing

There are several types of storage options available depending on the nature and intended use of the data.

/tigress-hsm is a shared disk resource for Artemis, Della, Hecate, Sesame, Tigressdata and Woodhen. It is suitable for storing the output of programs or data that may need to be processed on another system.

Several types of scratch disk are available on each cluster. /scratch exists on every node to facilitate private writes; /scratch/network is space for data that needs to be shared between nodes in a serial fashion; and /scratch/pvfs2 (/scratch/lustre on Artemis) is available to all nodes when data is being written in parallel.

Finally, DataSpace offers longterm storage and publication options for datasets, visualizations or reports.
