Jetstream	http://jetstream-cloud.org//	general	platform_group platform_purview platform_url platform_text academic-cloud United States http://jetstream-cloud.org/ Jetstream	[Jetstream](http://jetstream-cloud.org/) is part of [XSEDE](https://www.xsede.org/), a "collection of integrated advanced digital resources and services" and is funded by NSF.	/images/logos/JetstreamRectClipped.jpg	You need to be eligible for an [XSEDE allocation](https://portal.xsede.org/allocation-policies) to use Jetstream, which means must be based at a U.S. institution. And although XSEDE is NSF-funded, "projects need not be supported by NSF grants" to receive an allocation. Jetstream enables researchers to launch, use, and shutdown their own Galaxy servers that have been pre-configured similar to the [Main Galaxy server](https://usegalaxy.org/). If you want to further customize your launched server you can [become an administrator](/cloud/jetstream/ssh/#adding-galaxy-admin-user) and even [access the server from the shell](/cloud/jetstream/ssh/).	See the [Galaxy on Jetstream documentation](/cloud/jetstream/) [FAQ](/cloud/jetstream/faq/)	Limits are determined by the size of your allocation and the size of the instances you launch.		Jetstream	[The National Science Foundation (NSF)](http://www.nsf.gov/) [Jetstream](http://jetstream-cloud.org/) is based at [Indiana University](https://www.iu.edu/) and Jetstream resources are hosted by Indiana University and the [Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC)](https://www.tacc.utexas.edu/).
