= HPC1 and/or HPC2

Note: The HPC Administration Fee is for both HPC1 and HPC2. HPC2 (Bioinformatics HPC) does not offer the free 1000 hour option due to limited number of compute nodes. If you require bioinformatics compute resources contact gerhardv@sun.ac.za for access.

Cost for HPC use is R2500 for unlimited access for 1 year. Semester use is R1250 (half). Please contact gerhardv for queries about short ad hoc usage, collabs etc.

Please note that the payment method has changed. Journals have been replaced with Interdepartmental Purchase Orders. The steps involved in carring out this operation will be posted here shortly. More information can be obtained from the ITFinOffice itfinoffice@sun.ac.za
