The commitment includes Microsoft's new Scientific Partnership Advancing Research & Knowledge coordination hub and program office, known as SPARK, focused on facilitating collaboration and scientific discovery for the Genesis Mission. Microsoft's investment package consists of $40 million in Azure compute and AI credits distributed over three years and $20 million in solution engineering enablement services.
SPARK serves as the single front door and coordination hub for Genesis Mission collaboration with Microsoft, orchestrating program, technical, research, engineering, security, compliance, partner and field teams. Microsoft will provide access to Microsoft Discovery and the Microsoft Discovery app to enable DOE and National Laboratory teams with early access to its capabilities.
