Zaratan is a high performance computing cluster available for research computations that require parallel execution on multiple CPUs/systems. Customers can contribute computational resources to the cluster, to which they then receive high priority access, obtain dedicated nodes, or can request grants of time from a committee of contributors to the cluster.

There is no cost for users being added to an existing allocation. There is no financial cost to end users for compute time for allocations granted by the Allocations and Advisory Committee. For other cases, determined through consultation.
