Engineering Computing Services (ECS)

Utilising our trusted, on-site data centre and High Performance Computing (HPC) capabilities our Engineering Computing Services (ECS) team provides an effective and efficient computing infrastructure which underpins everything we do at CFMS.

At CFMS, we believe in a collaborative approach. Combining digital engineering with our IT infrastructure allows us to showcase insight into the IT challenges advanced engineering projects could face. Fully integrated with other digital engineering experts and disciplines, our trusted reputation promises improved results that are ready for industrial deployment.

Through our IT infrastructure, CFMS can provide collaborative IT environments for complex engineering projects and product development.


Accelerating Digital Engineering with High Performance Compute

Our UK-based, industrially secure data centre offers compute, storage and network resources to support commercial and open-source HPC applications. We have architected a modular solution to enable a more upgradable hardware design. Hardware can be selected to be more diverse or heterogeneous to serve different niche applications and provide the flexibility you require.

Services span GPU-enabled virtual desktop collaborative environments, fully hosted and managed private CI/CD Git repositories, pay-on-demand HPC simulation codes and pay-on-demand CPU and GPU core hours for modelling, simulation and machine learning training and inference. Our team is on hand to help optimise and support your HPC usage.
