The RIS team has completed each vendor’s delivery, installation, and configuration of hardware and are working on configuring the new SLURM job scheduler and supporting systems. We will select early adopters for usability and performance testing to ensure our cluster infrastructure meets Compute2’s highest performance, security, and reliability standards.
The team is targeting June 2025 for general availability.
