HPC
High Performance Computing
Bocconi University provides access to High Performance Computing (HPC) resources to all faculty members, supporting the research community for those computations that cannot be performed on a local/personal machines.
The facility is currently built with 16 nodes interconnected with a special high-speed Infiniband network, with 496 CPU cores, 16 Nvidia Ampere A100 GPUs, 8 Nvidia H100 GPUs, 10TB of RAM and about 250TB of storage.
| Nodes | RAM GB | cores | core/CPU | tot. RAM GB | tot. CPU | tot. GPU |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 384 | 40 | 20 | 1536 | 160 | |

Two nodes, each equipped with four NVIDIA A100 GPUs (80 GB VRAM each) and 512 GB of system RAM, are configured with MIG (Multi-Instance GPU) and dedicated to students.
The Technology team provides training workshops and support for researchers.
Access is granted by simple email request (hpc@unibocconi.it).
