Virtual Machine
A dedicated environment for researchers to prototype code and applications that cannot run on HPC. Scalable, managed, on-premises VMware infrastructure in Linux and Windows.
About Virtual Machines for Clinical Research
VMs for Clinical Research offer a dedicated environment to prototype code and applications that cannot run on High Performance Computing. Resources are hosted on-premises using VMware technology, in both Linux and Windows configurations.
Key benefits
- High availability and scalability, with backup options on request
- System administrator management and support
- Customizable configurations and flexible resource allocation without reboots
- Seamless storage upgrades
How to request
- Faculty submit a VM request for personal or research group use.
- Graduate students and postdocs submit requests through their advisor or PI.
- Research Systems Engineering provisions and manages the VM.
Example applications
MATLAB processing of experimental results; DICOM image processing and analysis.
