Available GPUs on NeSI

NeSI has a range of Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) to accelerate compute-intensive research and support more analysis at scale. Depending on the type of GPU, you can access them in different ways, such as via batch scheduler (Slurm), interactively (using Jupyter on NeSI), or Virtual Machines (VMs).

The table below outlines the different types of GPUs, who can access them and how, and whether they are currently available or on the future roadmap.

If you have any questions about GPUs on NeSI or the status of anything listed in the table, Contact our Support Team.
