Get started with the Unity Research Computing Platform

The Unity Research Computing Platform is a collaborative research computing environment built for discovery. Whether your group needs to write Jupyter Notebooks in a collaborative location, run thousands of ensemble experiments, or scale massively parallel workloads across hundreds of cores, Unity handles the infrastructure so you can focus on the research. Spearheaded by UMass Amherst RCD and located at the MGHPCC, Unity is a growing regional resource and serves multiple universities, colleges, and industry partners.
