Flatiron Institute Documentation Center

Open to admins and anyone with cluster credentials, this wiki aims to document computing resources, outline policies, suggest best practices, and address frequently asked questions at the Flatiron Institute.

The constituent centers (CCA, CCB, CCM, CCN, CCQ) also each have their own space for domain-specific documentation and center-specific information.

To get started, log in using the menu in the top bar, or click here.
