Expansion of the de.NBI Cloud at the Freiburg site - +11 TByte RAM

Today, the de.NBI Cloud at the Freiburg site was significantly expanded by more than eleven terabytes of RAM. A total of ten machines have now been upgraded to 1 TByte RAM, allowing even more virtual machines with high memory requirements to run in parallel.

In the course of Jan. 13, colleagues from de.NBI and the eScience dept. at the University IT Services carried out the expansion of the de.NBI and bwCloud infrastructures at the Freiburg site. This OpenStack virtualization environment is available for research and education and offers machines for the field of BioInformatics within the framework of de.NBI or Galaxy and bwCloud.
