Small Projects, Big Projects and Everything in Between

Jetstream2, the distributed cloud computing system at Indiana University managed by the Pervasive Technology Institute (PTI), has recently been certified by NSF for use in the ACCESS project. The ACCESS allocations team will soon be able to start allocating time on this new high performance computing platform.

PTI is excited to extend their services to a new wave of researchers on their cutting-edge hardware. It’s a big step forward in supercomputing. With Jetstream2, PTI will be able to aid in the research for more students than any other NSF-funded cyberinfrastructure resource. This means a more accessible platform for researchers who may not have had access to such systems before.

We intend Jetstream2 to be a democratizing force within the NSF ecosystem, allowing researchers and educators access to cutting-edge resources regardless of project scale.
