NRP’s Collaboration with PATh Delivers Computing Capacity and Services for Researchers

PATh and National Research Platform (NRP) collaborate and share a common mission to build open cyberinfrastructure and expand services for scientific research affiliated with US academic institutions. Both projects are supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF)'s Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (OAC) award.

NRP contributes to PATh by:

  • Increasing PATh's overall computing capacity by contributing to the OSPool, a pool of shared computing capacity accessible to researchers affiliated with a US academic institution.
  • Sharing their global Kubernetes infrastructure, which manages the deployment of PATh services.
  • Making it easier for institutions to contribute capacity to the OSPool due to the system infrastructure that NRP can run on a contributing institution's behalf.
  • Providing access for its community to PATh's Open Science Data Federation (OSDF) and Pelican services for data access and staging.

The below projects used NRP resources on the OSPool to advance their research in the past year and ran more than 100 jobs. To run your own research on the OSPool sign up now on the OSG Portal.
