Explore Docker and Jupyter to support multi-user Python Notebook work #37

Open rsignell-usgs opened 9 years ago

rsignell-usgs commented 9 years ago

We currently have a Wakari Enterprise Server installed, which cost us $5000 this year, but is going up to $25,000 next year. So I'm looking to other less expensive solutions to support multi-user login with notebooks). I'm interested in trying out docker on comt.sura.org, because the jupyter (formerly ipython notebook) project is heavily into docker for installing multi-user services.

I actually took the first steps to getting docker going by doing

yum --enablerepo epel-testing install docker-io
sudo service docker start

but discovered that our SELinux policies needed updating, so I did:

sudo yum upgrade selinux-policy

but this requires a reboot. I was thinking about 11 am ET today.

So: 1) please tell me if this plan sounds unreasonable 2) please tell me if there is a reason to not reboot

Thanks, Rich

No objection to rebooting or changing the SELinux policy.

Just drop a note here so I can check services afterwards.

Okay, I'm going reboot.
