NFDI4ING
The National Research Data Infrastructure for Engineering (NFDI4ING) brings together the engineering communities. The consortium offers a unique method-oriented and user-centered approach to making engineering research data FAIR – findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-usable.
NHR4CES
The German federal and state governments have agreed in the Joint Science Conference (GWK) to support a coordinated alliance of several computing centers for the National High Performance Computing (NHR) that will provide resources and services for high-performance computing for all German universities. In the National High Performance Computing Center for Computational Engineering Sciences (NHR4CES) – which has been part of the alliance since November 2020 – RWTH Aachen University and TU Darmstadt combine their strengths in applications, algorithms and methods of high-performance computing as well as in the efficient use of hardware.
Stadt Darmstadt (the Darmstadt City Council)
The TU Darmstadt operates the “Schulnetz Darmstadt” (Darmstadt school network) on behalf of the city of Darmstadt under a cooperation agreement. The HRZ provides high-performance Internet connections for educational institutions in Darmstadt.
TUdata
The TUdata team, formed in 2018 and consisting of staff from the ULB (University and State Library Darmstadt) and HRZ, supports all members of the university on behalf of the Presidential Board in the securing, archiving, publication and subsequent use of research data.
TU9 - German Universities of Technology
TU9 is the alliance of the nine leading technical universities in Germany: RWTH Aachen, Technische Universität Berlin, Technische Universität Braunschweig, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Technische Universität Dresden, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Technische Universität München and Universität Stuttgart. The HRZ on behalf of the TU Darmstadt is in close cooperation with the TU9 on the topic of IT security.
Goethe University Frankfurt am Main
The HRZ offers a professional backup system to secure data stocks. This backup system works in the background and ensures that the data is additionally secured by a second copy after Frankfurt.
Justus Liebig University Giessen
The Computer Center of the Justus Liebig University Giessen is the service provider for the Hessenbox-DA of the TU Darmstadt. This provides online storage with sync and share functions to support teaching and research, studies and university administration. Furthermore, it enables online editing of documents in the Hessenbox directly with OnlyOffice in the web browser.
RWTH Aachen
RWTH Aachen University (Rhenish-Westphalian Technical University Aachen) is the system provider for the TU-GitLab service offerings of the University of Darmstadt. GitLab is a web application for version management in software projects based on Git. It offers various management and bug tracking functionalities.
ZKI e.V.
The association “Zentren für Kommunikation und Informationsverarbeitung in Lehre und Forschung e.V.” ZKI e.V. (centres for communication and information processing) is the association of IT service centers of colleges, universities and research institutions in Germany. It supports the exchange of experience among the member institutions and represents the interests of the central infrastructure facilities vis-à-vis other associations, politics and the public.
