RAIL builds on the success of the RMIT Advanced Cloud Ecosystem (RACE), and strengthens RMIT’s capability to deliver cloud and AI-enabled research, prototypes and digital solutions. By combining cloud specialists, research subject experts, and structured innovation processes, the RAIL is designed to shorten the pathway from research concept to deployed solution.
The RAIL provides researchers, students and partners with access to scalable AWS cloud and AI services, enhanced data capabilities, training opportunities and hands-on project support.
The RAIL is co-located with RACE on the ground floor of Building 91. It will feature AWS technology demonstrations, collaborative work zones and a dedicated environment designed to support interdisciplinary innovation.
The RAIL will initially focus on four core research themes:
RMIT University acknowledges the people of the Woi wurrung and Boon wurrung language groups of the eastern Kulin Nation on whose unceded lands we conduct the business of the University. RMIT University respectfully acknowledges their Ancestors and Elders, past and present. RMIT also acknowledges the Traditional Custodians and their Ancestors of the lands and waters across Australia where we conduct our business - Artwork 'Sentient' by Hollie Johnson, Gunaikurnai and Monero Ngarigo.
