The University of British Columbia: Simplifying Research in the cloud
Advanced Research Computing at the University of British Columbia has been consistently exploring ways to bring the power of the Public Cloud to researchers of all backgrounds and technical skill levels. To this end, we will present our implementation and experiences of the RONIN platform. RONIN is an incredibly simplistic web application that allows researchers to launch complex compute resources leveraging AWS Public Cloud infrastructure within minutes.We will explore the use of RONIN to deploy common applications (such as R Studio and Jupyter Notebooks), HPC Clusters, Object storage, and remote desktops for visualization. Also explored will be how researchers can optimize their usage of Public Cloud resources using pre-emptible instances and machine scheduling. We will also discuss how implementing such a platform significantly reduced barriers and increased adoption of the Public Cloud by researchers.
