As one of the biggest science institutions in Europe and the only German University of Excellence with national large-scale research facilities KIT combines a long university tradition with program-oriented top-level research. KIT’s own computing center, the SCC positions itself as a center for data-intensive computing and the analysis of large-scale data. The Smart Data Innovation Lab operated by the SCC provides access to HPC infrastructure for research on industrial data particularly including state of the art tools and GPU resources for machine learning. It is also part of a network of European digital innovation hubs (EUHubs4Data) building a federated cross-sectorial data space.
