Project application¶
Demo projects¶
On first login at access.nrec.no with Feide credentials you are automatically allocated a demo project. This is not applied for — it is created automatically. Demo projects have a fixed default quota that cannot be altered and instances with a maximum lifetime of 90 days.
Applying for additional projects¶
If you need additional resources or a project in which you wish to collaborate with other users, you can apply for different types of projects at request.nrec.no.
Personal projects: Single-user projects. See the quota tables below; when applying you must specify a tier (small, medium, or large).
Shared projects: Multi-user projects. Users can be added or removed at any time. Quotas are specified per project and adjusted by contacting support.
vGPU projects: GPU-assisted compute for accelerated desktops, AI/ML workloads, and other GPU-accelerated tasks. Quotas are per vGPU instance and multiplied by the requested count. See Virtual GPU Accelerated instance (vGPU) for details.
