Sometimes the immediate in-house HPC facilities are exceeded by a burst in demand; a looming deadline, greater simulation resolution, faster rendering.

Or, your organisation is looking to purchase a sizeable machine and you would like to sample a several CPU variants or high performance networks (InfiniBand, Myrinet, Quadrics) before committing to a decision.

There are any number of variants where relatively short-term or periodic HPC access is desired:

• 1024cores for a 4 hour period over night
• 40 hours per week on N cores
• A simulation that requires 1TB of memory for the application
• last week of every financial quarter 'X' is required.

With a network of partner sites in Europe and North America and a capacity of 20,000 cores we will match your requirements against a number of appropriate sites offering spare CPU time and memory. EigenForge also works with you to install your applications and sofwtare licenses, and will also arrange for transfer of your data.

EigenForge manages the relationship with our partners to meet your requirement, including ring-fencing of resource, security, and dedicated login nodes where appropriate.

If you think your site has spare capacity and are interested in joining the Brokerage programme we would also be interested in hearing from you.
