Note: Starting January 2025, the CAD Compute Cluster service will be unavailable indefinitely as we explore options to update its hardware and software to deliver a high-quality, reliable service. This change does not affect our VCAD Cloud or Turbo Cloud platforms.
Recognizing that this type of service is valuable to our subscribers, we provide the following arrangements:
- Assist subscribers with access to our CAD licence servers if they run simulations on Digital Research Alliance or Calcul Quebec nodes. For more information, see Other Ways to Run HPC (High-Performance Compute) Simulations.
- Work with our academic partners to identify other options for high-performance computing (HPC) services.
- Find commercial data centre partners with whom we can offer VIE clients HPC access.
For more information about this change or to discuss a potential partnership, please contact Hugh Pollitt-Smith.
