If you find that you are not getting access to the volume of computing
resources needed for your research through HCC, you might also consider
submitting your jobs to the Open Science Grid (OSG).
submitting your jobs to the OSG.
### What is the Open Science Grid?
### What is the OSG?
The [Open Science Grid](http://opensciencegrid.org) advances
science through open distributed computing. The OSG is a
multi-disciplinary partnership to federate local, regional, community
and national cyber infrastructures to meet the needs of research and
academic communities at all scales. HCC participates in the OSG as a
resource provider and a resource user. We provide HCC users with a
gateway to running jobs on the OSG.
The [OSG](https://osg-htc.org/) advances
science through open distributed computing. Established in 2005, the OSG Consortium operates a fabric of distributed High Throughput Computing (dHTC) services in support of the National Science & Engineering community. The research collaborations, campuses, national laboratories, and software providers that form the consortium are unified in their commitment to advance open science via these services. The Holland Computing Center is proud member of the OSG Consortium. If you are interested in hearing more about OSG or utilizing its resources for your research, please email hcc-support.unl.edu.
