Access to compute services
We provide researchers with capacity and expertise for high performance computing, data processing and cloud computing. Find out how you can request access and support from SURF.
Access for researchers through a direct contract
Are you a researcher, in need of computing and storage capacity, and not using the NWO computing call?
Check below whether your institution has a contract with us and how to request access to computing capacity.
Are you responsible for IT within your institution (e.g. as CIO, ict department head, employee or manager) and are you interested in purchasing computing and storage capacity directly from SURF? Then go to the page with information about the various procurement contracts.
