Jetstream2, led by the Pervasive Technology Institute at Indiana University, adds cloud-based, on-demand computing and data analysis resources to the national cyberinfrastructure. It expands this cyberinfrastructure to communities who have not had previous HPC experience or an easy route to harness the massive compute power research now demands.
With a focus on ease of use and broad accessibility, Jetstream2 is designed for those who have not previously used high performance computing and software resources. The system is particularly geared toward 21st-century workforce development at small colleges and universities—especially historically black colleges and universities, minority serving institutions, tribal colleges, and higher education institutions in EPSCoR states.
