Benefits of R-Cloud

Explore with r-cloud cluster resources

HPC On Demand
With R-Cloud, clients can “rent” HPC resources they can’t get internally for sudden spikes in volume, intense data crunching, or time-critical research projects. Powered by R Systems computing infrastructure, R-Cloud lets you access powerful HPC resources when you need them—without the expense of maintaining large HPC systems yourself. It is ideal for those who want to do their own research, Proof of Concept testing, and code development, or try out the latest hardware before buying it.

Vast Computing Capabilities
R-Cloud is backed by R-HPC’s enormous computing capacity at our two data centers. Our equipment is constantly enhanced with the latest HPC technology to ensure optimal speed, computing capacity, and availability. And unlike typical cloud configurations, R-Cloud uses both virtual and physical servers for added performance and security.

Select Your Environment
R-Cloud offers two distinct computing environments:

SHARED CLUSTERS
  • Physical machines
  • Multiple users
  • Self-service support
  • No system administration
 VIRTUAL PRIVATE CLUSTERS
  • System carved out of a shared configuration
  • Reconfigured for exclusive access
  • Higher flexibility, lower performance
  • VMS, DYI systems admin
  • VLAN security

Replicate Your Internal Computing Environment
R-Cloud’s open source hardware lets you quickly replicate the same software configurations used internally for rapid deployment and greater end-user comfort levels—so you can concentrate on your work, not on the system setup. As components are unbundled, you can select the CPU, memory, storage, and bandwidth levels you need, with no threat of code or vendor lock-out.

Simple “Pay-As-You-Go” Pricing
Just pay for the resources you use. R-Cloud has no layered fee structures, complex tiered service agreements, or nickel-and-diming “gotcha” surprises. Our Monthly Expense Calculator tool will help you accurately budget for costs.

Hallmark Customer Support
R-Cloud clients have free access to helpful online documentation, forums, and message boards. In addition, our Silver Lining program provides telephone support from our experienced R-Team HPC technicians. (Available for a monthly fee.
