We had an internal development day to talk about our status and future goals. We settled on these three broad topics for special mention:

1. Teaching: continue focus on big, basic courses for new SciComp community members, and support (#SciComp garage, RSE) for advanced self-study course support.
2. Triton v3: we have big software/OS updates coming which will take lots of time, both doing it and supporting changes.
3. Help our largest users use #LUMI HPC (#EuroHPC).

🤔 How much do you know about #supercomputers?

HPC is 🗝️ to processing and analysing the growing volume of data to make the most of it for the benefit of citizens, businesses and researchers.

Research & Education #networks as GÉANT and the #NRENs play a critical role in enabling researchers to access and utilise advanced #HPC facilities.

Read how our #network meets the demands of #EuroHPC, as by providing the @ATLASexperiment – one of the largest collaborative projects in scientific history – with access to the #Vega supercomputer in Slovenia 🇸🇮 👉 https://connect.geant.org/2023/02/02/geant-and-the-nrens-ready-for-the-demands-of-eurohpc

#Supercomputing #Science #Networking #LHCONE #CERN #infrastructure #Europe #research #ATLASexperiment

In #Barcelona for the kickoff of #ESIWACE3, a #EuroHPC center of excellence for weather and climate modeling.

⚡️ Kaliméra #DAEDALUS!

A new #EuroHPC world-class #supercomputer in Greece 🇬🇷 is underway.

Once procured, it will be able to perform more than 30 petaflops or 30 million billion calculations per second.
