Attend an upcoming SpinUp workshop to learn to use Spin for your own science gateway projects.
Spin is a service platform at NERSC based on Docker container technology. It can be used to deploy science gateways, workflow managers, databases, and all sorts of other services that can access NERSC systems and storage on the back end. New large-memory nodes have been added to the platform, increasing the potential of the platform for new memory-constrained applications.
Applications for sessions that begin this Wednesday, June 5, are now open. SpinUp is hands-on and interactive, so space is limited. Participants will attend an instructional session and a hackathon to learn about the platform, create running services, and learn maintenance and troubleshooting techniques. Local and remote participants are welcome.
More sessions are planned for September and December.
