Cloud Computing
Faculty researchers (should be the PI or lead researcher) can apply today for free credits for GCP to access the power and flexibility needed to advance their research and scale with ease. Awards are worth $5,000 (USD) in GCP credits and only one person per research proposal may apply. These expire 12 months after they are redeemed. To ensure that all of our programs are sustainable, they are not intended to 100% fund research, but are used to allow the researchers to get started and run a large initial amount of work loads on Google Cloud Platform. Here is the GCP research credits program Application Form.
They have huge machines (up to 160 vCPUs and nearly 4TB of memory) and many GPUs. Also, TERRA.bio promises to bring in a new generation of bioinformatics with less irritating hassle munging datasets.
