BeoShock HPC Budgetary Estimate, Purchase and Install for Hardware

Overview

Use this form for HPC node and equipment quotes, purchases and installation requests.  

Below is a list of nodes and hardware that can be included in your request.

  • General Use Compute Node
  • GPU Node
  • High Memory Node
  • Virtual Machine Node 
  • Storage Node 
  • 10G Network switch (48 ports) 
  • Mellanox Infiniband switch (36 ports)
  • Server Rack

NOTE:  The compute nodes are blades that go in a 4-blade chassis, so for every 4 blades there is the additional cost of another chassis.  The process to add additional racks and switching is complicated for someone only adding a single node that pushes past the point of needing to add a rack or switch, so a fraction will be built into your estimate on requests for a few nodes.

Eligibility
