Table 1 Cineca high-performance computing clusters available for bioinformatic projects during the ELIXIR-IT HPC@CINECA call period, some providing higher-memory nodes. Projects are assigned to one cluster or the other upon technical evaluation from Cineca’s staff and depending on the nature and needs of the project itself. Detailed instructions on how to get access to and use the clusters are provided to the PIs after projects approval and are also available on the Cineca website. Marconi A2 is going to be replaced by the Marconi 100 cluster in a few months
