RCI is a UCSD-sponsored program that offers campus researchers facilities, storage, data curation,
computing, and networking to facilitate their research using shared cyberinfrastructure services across
campus.
The RCI program is designed to provide cost-effective, reliable services which can be utilized by UCSD
principal investigators in their current research efforts and incorporated in proposals for future research. In
general, these services are available to researchers at a reduced cost, supplemented by the RCI program.
RCI has a number of services which are described in more detail via the links below. Some of these services
are already available now in production, while other services are in pilot phase to best determine researcher
