Les missions du CINES

Complementary national strategic missions

Exceptional resources available to researchers to tackle major scientific challenges.

Leading-edge equipment for extreme simulations:

A supercomputer in the world TOP 10 in November 2022.

With an architecture comprising two partitions (CPU and GPU) for a total of74 Pflops. Providing broadband access, technical support and training from our highly qualified engineers.

By describing the scientific project and justifying the resources required to carry it out.

A high-performance solution for the long-termpreservationof institutions’ digital assets.

Archiving is an essential parameter to be taken into account in any policy of dematerialisation and digitisation of information.

CINES offers an economical and secure solution:

Compliant with industry standards
Respecting the standard exchange protocol
Approved by the Service Interministériel des Archives de France

Data concerned by permanent archiving at cines

Scientific data derived from observations or calculations.
Heritage data: educational material, publications, etc.
Administrative data

The expertise of the CINES is based on several aspects:

A multidisciplinary team of specialists ready to listen to your needs
Collaboration with key players: BNF, Archives de France, Archives nationales, CNES, etc.
The centre’s experience in exploiting digital data
collaboration with players such as the BNF, Archives de France, Archives Nationales, CNES, etc.

They trust us

Official national archiving centre for electronic theses
Archiving of SHS journals distributed by the PERSEE portal
Archiving for the TGE Huma-Num of data from the Centre de Recherche pour les Données Orales, for the CCSD of publications deposited in HAL, for libraries of their heritage collections, etc.

CINES is also involved in the European EUDAT project, which aims to set up a European data exchange and storage infrastructure.

A high-performance solution for the long-term preservation of institutions’ digital assets.

CINES’s experience in operating IT environments and the pooling of its exceptional infrastructure means that it can host the strategic servers of national partners in its machine rooms. (Bibliographic Agency for Higher Education, INSERM, RENATER…)
