Together, they will soon open one of the nation\u2019s largest academic computing centers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.umd.edu\/\">The University of Maryland<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jhu.edu\/\">Johns Hopkins University<\/a> will jointly manage the upcoming Maryland Advanced Research Computing Center. MARCC (pronounced \u201cMAR-see\u201d) is located near the edge of the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center campus in Baltimore. Final testing is currently under way and the center is expected to open this month. The project was financed with the help of $30 million from the state.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">MARCC will provide state-of-the-art digital processing power to a wide array of researchers at the two universities. It consists of more than 19,000 processors and 17 petabytes (17 million gigabytes) of storage capacity. The center will send information to the campuses of the two universities via fiber-optic connection, which will enable researchers to access MARCC without even leaving their labs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The new center will make work\u2014and\u00a0life\u2014much more easier for researchers. Instead of investing their own time and money to build new, high-performance computing centers, researchers with access to MARCC will only have to share the maintenance costs of the new data center. This will lead to significant cost savings and greater efficiency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Rendering via\u00a0<a title=\"Johns Hopkins University\" href=\"https:\/\/marcc.jhu.edu\">Johns Hopkins University<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Upcoming computing center will make work and life so much easier for researchers affiliated with two of Maryland&#8217;s top universities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":925,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1579,21755,21742],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004123205","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-baltimore","category-data-centers","category-latest"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
