# Compute

A compute resource is a building block that represents compute resources such as GPUs, CPU cores, and CPU memory.
The compute resources may consist of multiple physical resources, for example, 0.5 GPU, 8 cores and 200 Megabytes of CPU memory. 
A compute resource is available to a scope and and all of the organizational units within that scope.
