Funding Partners
WestGrid and our seven member institutions, as regional partners of Compute Canada, receive funding for the operations and maintenance (O&M) needs of national advanced research computing support through the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) Major Science Initiatives program (MSI). The provincial governments of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchwan and Manitoba provide the required matching funds for all CFI grants.

Network Partners
WestGrid's advanced research computing facilities are connected through a dedicated WestGrid core network which makes use of CANARIE's national network infrastructure as well as the provincial infrastructure of the National Research and Education Network (NREN) partners in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. This allows for high-speed network connections between sites and can be be used for services like large file transfers.
