-Hellbender is a traditional HPC research cluster built at MU in 2023 to support research efforts for UM researchers. Mizzou's Division of Research, Innovation & Impact (DRII) is the primary source of funding for the hardware and support of Hellbender. Hellbender is made up of 112 compute nodes containing 2 AMD 7713 processors and 512GB of RAM and 17 GPU nodes containing 4 Nvidia A100 80GB RAM GPUs, 2 Intel Xeon 6338 processors, and 256GB of system RAM.

Hellbender started as 112 compute nodes containing 2 AMD 7713 processors and 512GB of RAM and 17 GPU nodes containing 4 Nvidia A100 80GB RAM GPUs, 2 Intel Xeon 6338 processors, and 256GB of system RAM. Since then, it has expanded thanks to researcher investments and repurposing the newest portions of the previous HPC cluster.

-DRII has made it clear the mission of Hellbender is to accelerate Mizzou Forward initiatives. There are 2 access levels made available for UM researchers, general and priority access. General access is free and available to all UM researchers. General access provides an equal share of at least 50% of the resources available to all users. Priority access provides dedicated access to some number of nodes on Hellbender and is available through either direct investment or DRII allocations. Direct investments are subsidized by DRII at a rate of 25% of the investment. For more specific details regarding access levels and costs for investment please see {{ :pub:hpc:hellbender_initial_computing_model.pdf |}} for Hellbender.+DRII has made it clear the mission of Hellbender is to accelerate Mizzou Forward initiatives.

 Requesting access to Hellbender can be done through our [[https://request.itrss.umsystem.edu|request form]]. Each form entry will need a faculty sponsor listed as the principal investigator for the group (PI) to be the primary contact for the request. The PI will be the responsible party for managing members  The form entry can also request access to our [[pub:rde:start|Research Data Ecosystem]] (RDE) at the same time as an HPC request or the RDE request can be made separately later if you find a need for it. Requesting access to Hellbender can be done through our [[https://request.itrss.umsystem.edu|request form]].
