AI holds the potential to accelerate discovery and innovation and help solve critical societal and global challenges. However, many researchers lack the necessary access to the AI resources needed to fully conduct their research activities and to train the next generation of researchers. The National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) is a concept for a shared national research infrastructure to bridge this gap by connecting U.S. researchers to responsible and trustworthy Artificial Intelligence (AI) resources, as well as the needed computational, data, software, training, and educational resources to advance research, discovery, and innovation. The aim is to ensure that AI resources and tools are equitably accessible to the broad research and education communities in a manner that advances trustworthy AI and protects privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.

Access and manage all your data, even protected data, from anywhere, using your existing identities, with just a web browser.​ Globus has various levels, ranging from free to different fee-based subscription services. Refer to the Globus subscription page to see what is right for you.

The NRP is a community-owned research and education platform connecting researchers and educators to foster collaboration, accelerate innovation, and share resources. Supported by over 50 institutions, including leadership from UC San Diego, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and the Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center, the NRP provides access to cutting-edge technologies in AI, high-performance computing, data storage, and networking. Open to all nonprofit higher education institutions, from community colleges to top research universities, the NRP advances learning and scientific breakthroughs with support from the U.S. National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, and Department of Defense among others.

FABRIC (FABRIC) is Adaptive Programmable Research Infrastructure for Computer Science and Science Applications is an International infrastructure that enables cutting-edge experimentation and research at-scale in the areas of networking, cybersecurity, distributed computing, storage, virtual reality, 5G, machine learning, and science applications.

The FABRIC infrastructure is a distributed set of equipment at commercial collocation spaces, national labs and campuses. Each of the 29 FABRIC sites has large amounts of compute and storage, interconnected by high speed, dedicated optical links. It also connects to specialized testbeds (5G/IoT PAWR, NSF Clouds), the Internet and high-performance computing facilities to create a rich environment for a wide variety of experimental activities. FABRIC Across Borders (FAB) extends the network to 4 additional nodes in Asia and Europe.

The Open Science Grid is a consortium dedicated to the advancement of open science via the practice of distributed High Throughput Computing, and the advancement of its state of the art. The OSG Consortium builds and operates a set of pools of shared computing and data capacity for distributed high-throughput computing (dHTC). Each pool is organized and operated to serve a particular research community (e.g. a campus, multi-institutional collaboration, etc.), using technologies and services provided by the core OSG Team. One of these pools, known as the Open Science Pool is operated for all of US-associated open science. The OSG Consortium represents the totality of all researchers, resources, individuals and institutions that benefit from or contribute to any of the OSG Fabric of Services.
