GP-STOR is currently in the acquisition and deployment phase. Access methods, policies, and allocation processes are being finalized and will be published with the production service launch.

Contact

A shared support address and virtual office hours open with the production service in Q3 2027. Until then, GP-STOR is reachable through the people running it.

Each partner campus has a principal investigator on the project. If your institution is one of the three, start there.

Everyone listed above, with their affiliations and links, is on the People page.

If your campus is not one of the three storage sites, reach out through your Great Plains Network contacts, or through your own institution’s research computing or CI facilitation group. GP-STOR is built to serve the wider region, and the project wants to hear about workloads it has not planned for.

Early conversations are more productive with a rough sense of:

  • the size of the collection you expect to store, and how fast it grows
  • whether the work streams data during computation or archives it afterward
  • which of the access methods fits your existing workflow
  • when you need it, against the project roadmap

Beta users come on in Q2 2027, ahead of open access in Q3. Groups that have already talked to their campus lead are the ones that get contacted first, so raising your hand now is worth doing even though the service is not yet running.
