In this session, we will discuss why and how you might choose a Rubin Independent Data Access Center (IDAC) for your computationally intensive science with Rubin.  The Rubin in-kind program features a dozen IDACs that will offer a variety of hosted data products, software interfaces, and hardware resources.  We will show some of this variety of resources, discuss the relationships of IDACs with Rubin Science Collaborations, and discuss accessing IDACs as a general Rubin user.
