Summary:Since its establishment in 1951, CIEMAT has been continuously boosting the use of computation as a research method, deploying innovative computing facilities. Hence, Vectorial, MPP, NUMA, and distributed architectures have been managed at CIEMAT, resultingin an extensive expertise on HPC maintainability as well as on the computational needs of the community related to international projects. Nowadays, the evolution of HPC hardware and software is progressively faster and implies a continuous challenge to increase their availability for the greater number of different initiatives supported. To address this task, the ICT team has been changing towards a flexible management model, with a look toward future acquisitions
