System Hardware Specifications

The AU HPC System provides high-speed parallel/distributed data processing and research-dedicated storage with high input-output capabilities. 

The Lovelace HPC is a RedHat Enterprise License HPC with a 2TB big memory node, a node with dual Nvidia H100 GPUs (each with 80 GB of RAM), and six nodes with quad Nvidia L40 GPUs (40GB of RAM). Each compute node has 512 GB of RAM and dual socket Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8462Y+ CPUs with 32 cores per socket.

Each user can have up to 500 GB in their home directory and faculty can request up to a 1 TB project directory for collaborative projects.
