Can we run a very large array computation on Matlab online?

I am using Matlab academic license.

I want to run a program with very larger matrix computation on Matlab online. The size of the required RAM if I use my computer is about 32GB.

I have 3 questions:

• What is the configuration of Matlab online?
• Is it possible if I use Matlab online for very large arrays like this?
• Is there any option to pay for higher configuration for Matlab online?

Thank you!

A MATLAB Online session is a linux instance in one of the MathWorks servers. So, all the linux commands to find the system and hardware information will work.

• The CPU information for your current MATLAB Online session can be found out using the command system('cat /proc/cpuinfo') on the MATLAB online command window.
• Similarly, the memory limits of of your current MATLAB Online session can be checked using the command system('cat /proc/meminfo').
• You get a 5GB space to store your outputs with a license and currently there's no option to purchase more or pay for a higher configuration system.

Also you can find the limitations of MATLAB online here. You can also have a look at the MATLAB Parallel Server if it suits your purpose.

Thank you for your recomendation! I am requesting a try on MATLAB Parallel Sever.

I have one more question. What is the configuration and limitation of MATLAB Parallel Sever?
