ABout the TeRABIT project

The TeRABIT project will create by 2025 an integrated computing and network infrastructure with very high performance and make it accessible to scientific communities throughout the national territory.

Co-managed by GARR, INFN, OGS and CINECA and financed with PNRR funds, TeRABIT will integrate and enhance three large strategic research infrastructures: GARR-T, PRACE-Italy and HPC-BD-AI:

• GARR-T, network infrastructure to support education and research in Italy which will be upgraded with connections at capacities up to terabit per second, reaching geographic areas complementary to those already covered through other interventions, reducing the digital divide for the community of research.
• PRACE-Italy, high performance computing infrastructure (HPC) - Italian node of the European PRACE infrastructure - which will upgrade its Tier-1 category HPC system, developing a hybrid architecture and connecting it to the other Exascale centers of EuroHPC as CINECA supercomputer Leonardo, part of ICSC.
• HPC-BD-AI, a computing infrastructure distributed across multiple sites throughout the country capable of managing high-performance computing resources, big data and artificial intelligence applications, which will create smaller HPC systems, available according to the paradigm of edge computing.
