About the Service:

Features

  • Customizable Environments: Supports various interfaces such as Jupyter Notebook, JupyterLab, RStudio, and nteract, along with dozens of kernels.
  • Flexible Authentication: Configurable access with protocols like OAuth and GitHub.
  • Scalable Architecture: Container-friendly and deployable on Kubernetes for tens of thousands of users.
  • Portability: Open-source and compatible with diverse infrastructures, including commercial clouds, virtual machines, or local hardware.
  • Collaborative Workspaces: Facilitates group projects by providing personal workspaces on shared resources.

Access

Users – including students, researchers, and data scientists – can get their work done in their own workspaces on shared resources which can be managed efficiently by system administrators. JupyterHub runs in the cloud or on your own hardware and makes it possible to serve a pre-configured data science environment to any user in the world. It is customizable, scalable, and is suitable for small and large teams, academic courses, and large-scale infrastructure.
