Lighthouse Rates

These rates represent cost recovery for the Lighthouse cluster and do not include any support your unit may choose to provide.

Faculty Owned Equipment: $743.07/node/year ($61.92/node/month)

Note: The Lighthouse cluster is meant to support researchers with grants that require the purchase of computing hardware or require hardware configurations not available on Great Lakes. Lighthouse allows researchers to work with ARC to get quotes to have their own hardware purchased in their units and configured within the Lighthouse Slurm environment, with ARC providing the data center, staff, networking, storage and software. Hardware configurations are done three times annually and as needed for larger purchases.
