This service is provided by the Scientific Computing Department (HPC).
The support service for the use of the university computing cluster called ‘Power’ is provided for an annual fee of 2,996 NIS.
You can also receive support for use of publicly available resources for this sum, including servers of other researchers and servers that the Computing Department has allocated especially for the cluster. If you operate off of servers belonging to other researchers and they need them, your runs will move to a new run (and if you’ve saved exit points, they will not start from the beginning, but that part is your responsibility).
If you wish to buy your own servers (you bring the hardware), upon which you will receive first run priority, you can bring the servers to us for hosting and installation for an additional fee of 250 NIS for the first five years and 500 NIS for the next 2 years.
! Additional NIS 1,100 per year for special settings such as GPU, storage or virtual machine/containers.
