Analysis and data visualization can be performed with Jupyter notebooks at MAX IV using a local edge JupyterHub.

It allows for the use of python and matlab notebooks in a web browser, with access to stored experimental data, as well as home folders in the MAX IV storage system. Simple ready off-the-shelf as well as configurable persistent user defined environments are available. Popular h5web viewer extension is already in place.

Authentication is done with the usual MAX IV credentials and the service is only available within the MAX IV networks.

Users can use different Jupyter instances.

Standard JupyterHub*

  • link: jupyterhub.maxiv.lu.se*
  • offering several cores, very decent RAM, GPU
  • available from all MAX IV networks
  • available during and also out of the beamtime
  • the most preferred (default) environmentally friendly (green) choice
  • wiki usage info: JupyterHub Usage*

HPC JupyterHub*

  • link: jupyterhub-hpc.maxiv.lu.se*
  • more HPC-like instances, i.e. more RAM, CPU cores, but only for a shorter and limited time.
  • availability depends on connection, current beamtime etc.
    Under some circumstances one can be offered multiple choices:

    • online-HPC: intended for use during beamtime
    • offline-HPC: for use out of beamtime
  • software environments are pretty similar to the standard instance
  • wiki usage info: JupyterHub on HPC Usage*

*To access it you need to be on the MAX IV site or connected to a MAX IV VPN.
