• Give support to the user in finding the appropriate computational resources;
• Facilitate the matching between resource availability and the users’ needs;
• Facilitate the procedures to access the HPC facilities.

The wiki collects the technical information the users will need to select the proper computing facility for running their jobs and the administrative information with the contacts that will provide access conditions and facilitate the access process.  While the selection of the institution to host the user’s jobs will be a simple self-service, the access procedure will be followed by a person (Institution mediator) who will follow and guide the user in the approach of the administrative process.

There is also the possibility of requesting a dedicated virtual machine in SoBigData Lab by completing the following document: link and send it to info@sobigdata.eu
