The university provides researchers with a secure and powerful environment for their work. To demonstrate this commitment, UMB is offering the use of the Standard SRE free of charge. Researchers can leverage the power and flexibility of the cloud while maintaining data compliance, all at no cost. Whether used daily, weekly, or monthly, the price is ZERO.

If your research project does not fit the Standard SRE, a custom research environment can be crafted to meet your needs. Due to the nature of the cloud, any custom-compute scenario will use a consumption-based, or pay-as-you-go pricing model.

Example Custom-Compute Scenarios and Associated Compute Costs

Note: These estimates do not include storage costs.

Please note: UMB's offering of the SRE does not include any costs associated with licensed software. It is the responsibility of the researcher, or research sponsor, to acquire and fund any necessary software licensing for the project.
