NAS SYSTEM RESOURCES

The NAS Division offers production and development systems to U.S. scientists in government, industry, and at universities. The production systems deliver a powerful, reliable computing environment to researchers. In addition to solving traditional computational fluid dynamics problems, these production systems are key resources for NASA's Mission Directorates — Aeronautics, Exploration Systems, Science, and Space Operations.

NAS' current high-end computing environment includes four supercomputers, and a 25-petabyte mass storage system for long-term data storage. The environment also includes two secure front-end systems requiring two-factor authentication, and two Secure Unattended Proxy systems for remote operations.

Here's the list of key system resources at the NAS facility:
