I'm looking into the Amazon and the National Computing Center options
but who are the others?

Since I am a hardware guy this is what I am thinking:
3072-Cores, 6,144GB RAM, 6-HP Racks, 24-C7000 Chassis, 384-BL460 (2xQC
2.0GHz, 16GB, 1x146GB)
4096-Cores, 8,192GB RAM, 8-HP Racks, 32-C7000 Chassis, 512-BL460 (2xQC
2.0GHz, 16GB, 1x146GB)
5120-Cores, 10,240GB RAM, 10-HP Racks, 40-C7000 Chassis, 640-BL460
(2xQC 2.0GHz, 16GB, 1x146GB)
