ARIS (Advanced Research Information System) is the most powerful computing system in Greece for scientific applications. It was launched in July 2015 by GRNET S.A. under the auspices of the Greek Ministry of Digital Governance, offering a powerful research tool to the Greek scientific community. The ARIS computing system today has a maximum theoretical computing power of 535 TFlop/s (i.e. it can perform 535 trillion mathematical operations/sec) and offers multiple data processing capabilities.
