Campus faculty and researchers are invited to a Research IT Town Hall on Thursday, September 24th to find out more about several campus services available to the UC Berkeley research community:

  • Savio, the campus’s new high performance computing facility, will soon offer expanded compute and storage capacity, and new compute models. Campus researchers can get free access to Savio with the Faculty Computing Allowance
  • Cloud Computing Support offers free consulting and documentation to help researchers use computational resources, storage, and applications from commercial cloud providers such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, and from national computational centers such as XSEDE.
  • Research Data Management, a partnership with The Library, provides consulting, training, and documentation pertinent to the lifecycle of activities around research data: from planning to collaboration, sharing, curation, preservation, discovery, and reuse.

The Town Hall will be held on September 24, 2015, from 9:30 am to 11:30 am, in Banatao Auditorium in Sutardja Dai Hall. This event is sponsored by the Berkeley Research Computing program, a part of Research IT, in the Office of the CIO.
