Welcome to Ask.CI! Our goal is to be the “go to” general Q&A platform for the global research computing community - researchers, facilitators, research software engineers, CI engineers, sys admins and others. We seek to streamline knowledge sharing and encourage self-service learning through centralized aggregation of experience, lessons learned and best practices, by encouraging a respectful discussion on research computing topics. Our hope is that through frequent updates to relevant topics, this site will have the answers to most “of the moment” research computing questions asked by the community and these answers will show first in search engine results.

ACCESS (Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Coordination Ecosystem: Services & Support) is a new program to improve the accessibility of national cyberinfrastructure centers and increase integration with systems and research communities on campuses across the nation. New forums to support ACCESS Resource Providers are under development in the ACCESS Forums category.
