ARM Data Center upgrades infrastructure for AI workflows

The U.S. Department of Energy’s ARM User Facility has announced ongoing upgrades to the ARM Data Center to support AI-ready scientific workflows.

• ARM is adding GPUs, replacing its file server with an AI-ready storage platform, and expanding cybersecurity/network controls to support data access and AI tools.
• The facility plans to add 25 to 30 new GPUs over the next two to five years and 2 to 3 petabytes of storage for vectorized content over the next three years; ADA is expected in July 2026.
