Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center (MGHPCC) is an intercollegiate high-performance computing facility located in Holyoke, Massachusetts, connected to that city's municipal fiber grid and powered by Holyoke Gas and Electric via the Holyoke Canal System and Dam.[2][3][a] MGHPCC is a joint venture of Boston University, Harvard, MIT, Northeastern, and the University of Massachusetts system;[4] the facility holds the capacity for hundreds of thousands of cores in clusters provided by its affiliates.[5] For example, as of 2016 one cluster used by UMass contained a network of 14,376 cores, both Intel and AMD, and more than 1.1 petabytes of on-site storage on an FDR Infiniband network.[6] The facility maintains capacity for regular expansion, with key partners investing capability upgrades in the current building and more than 4 acres of additional undeveloped space.[7][8]
