Norwegian Research Infrastructure Services

The Norwegian research high-performance computing and storage infrastructure is maintained by NRIS (formerly known as the Metacenter), which is a joint collaboration between UiO, UiB, NTNU, UiT, and Sigma2.

We provide valuable resources for the research communities. Not only do we provide state-of-the art compute and storage facilities, backed by support and a guarantee that your data always stays in Norway. But possibly more important is easy access to a wide selection of competences that can assist, realize or take your project to the next level.

This website (https://documentation.sigma2.no/) primarily holds documentation of resources we provide. For more general information and service overview, please also see https://www.sigma2.no.

Compute, storage, pre/post-processing, visualization, machine learning

We offer compute resources Betzy, Fram, and Saga, storage resources NIRD, as well as the NIRD Service Platform for pre- and post-processing analysis, data intensive processing, visualization, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

Researchers also have access to LUMI through the LUMI consortium.
