Ce.Di.Pa. will be interconnected—both physically and logically—with the University of Perugia’s network and will adopt cutting-edge technologies to ensure flexibility, scalability, and redundancy, providing researchers with the necessary tools to carry out their activities.
The Center’s infrastructure will include:
- A scalable storage system with a capacity in the petabyte range.
- A high-performance computing system with thousands of processing cores, organized within a virtualization environment.
- A dedicated GPU computing section for Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence applications.
To ensure data processing and storage reliability, resources will be replicated across two separate physical sites, maintaining a safe distance to provide redundancy and resilience, even in emergency situations.
Data registration, distribution, and replication between the two sites will be managed through a GARR network connection with speeds of at least 10 Gbps. The network infrastructure will be secured with firewalls and continuously monitored by a Network Operation Center (NOC) to ensure security and stability.
