Using Containers on ARDC Nectar Research Cloud

About the Event

This is an online training, where participants will learn how to use Containers on the Nectar Cloud. It is a detailed hands-on training session, designed to give researchers basic experience with starting, managing and using the Docker platform.

What will be covered:

• What is a container?
• What is Docker and Basic Terminology
• How to deploy basic applications in a Docker Container
• Basic Docker Commands
• What’s a Docker file?

Prior to the training, participants should log in to the Virtual Desktop Service and start a Desktop for use.

This is part one of a 2-part training. The optional second part, which takes place a week later, will cover using Kubernetes on the Nectar Cloud to create a web cluster. Registration for part 2 is only open to those who attend part one.

The Zoom link will be sent to registered participants prior to the training.
