Training infrastructure

This page provides information about the technical setup required to run the workshop.

The workshop materials can be adapted for or a range of training environments, including:

• cloud-based virtual machines (VMs)
• institutional HPC or other shared compute environments
• local installations
• preconfigured environments provided through another platform or service

On your selected infrastructure, follow the Setup instructions to install and configure an environment with all software, containers, and files required for the workshop.

Participants require a personal computer with:

• VSCode (or a comparable code editor)
• a web browser
• access to the selected training environment

Before the workshop, participants should install the required software and extensions and confirm that they can successfully connect to the environment that will be used.

SIH and the Australian BioCommons are working towards providing access to a a pre-configured compute environments for self-directed learning, as well as setting up VMs.
