Summary
For more than 25 years the German Climate Computing Center has been providing high performance computing platforms, data storage systems and related services exclusively and tailor-made to the German climate research. This lays the foundation for world-class climate science which is reflected in the contributions to the official symposium and the user workshop in February 2013 on the occasion of DKRZ’s anniversary. The following article will briefly review the exciting first 25 years of DKRZ.
