3. UNDERSTANDING JUPYTERHUB IN 1,000 (AND MAYBE A FEW MORE) COMMON WORDS https://xkcd.com/simplewriter/ 3
4. — Leonardo da Vinci THE NOBLEST PLEASURE IS THE JOY OF UNDERSTANDING. ” “ 4
5. LEONARDO MEETS THING EXPLAINER 5 • what this talk is A user friendly JupyterHub introduction • what it is not A deep dive architecture talk or a “hands on” workshop..though I will give you resources to these things along the way • Who Scientists, researchers, engineers, managers, teachers, you • why Understanding the major parts that make up JupyterHub to help with planning, trial, and deployment UNDERSTANDING JUPYTERHUB
6. BASICS 6
7. 7 HUB A WAY TO GIVE A JUPYTER NOTEBOOK SERVER TO EACH PERSON IN A GROUP OF PEOPLE.
8. WHAT IS A NOTEBOOK? • Document • Environment • Web app https://github.com/CamDavidsonPilon/Probabilistic-Programming-and-Bayesian-Methods-for-Hackers 8
9. 9 JUPYTER NOTEBOOK Python R Julia View and Enter Stuff Part Language Expert Thing Important Stuff Organizer and Doing Thing
10. 10 A SINGLE USER JUPYTER NOTEBOOK SERVER Python R Julia
11. 11 A THING TO GIVE A JUPYTER NOTEBOOK SERVER TO EACH PERSON IN A GROUP OF PEOPLE. HUB
12. HOW IT WORKS 12
13. • Manages authentication • Spawns single-user notebook servers on-demand • Gives each user a complete notebook server 13 WHAT DOES THE HUB DO?
14. • Hub (User Database, Authenticator, Spawner) • Users and their individual notebook servers • Configurable HTTP Proxy 14 THE PARTS OF JUPYTERHUB
15. 15 USER DATABASE A PLACE TO KEEP INFORMATION ABOUT PEOPLE USING JUPYTERHUB WHAT THE HUB CONTAINS
16. 16 AUTHENTICATOR A THING THAT CHECKS: • IF A PERSON IS WHO THEY CLAIM TO BE • IF THEY CAN USE THEIR JUPYTERHUB NOTEBOOK SERVER WHAT THE HUB CONTAINS
17. 17 SPAWNER A WORKER BEE THAT MAKES JUPYTER NOTEBOOK SERVERS FOR PEOPLE WHAT THE HUB CONTAINS

19. WHEN SHOULD I USE IT? 19
20. When to use JupyterHub • A class where students can do homework (nbgrader) • A short-lived workshop, especially if installation is hard • A research group with a shared workstation or small cluster • On-site computing resources for researchers and analysts at an institution 20
21. When not to use JupyterHub • tmpnb: anonymous, ephemeral notebooks • binder: tmpnb + GitHub repos • SageMathCloud is hosted and provides realtime-collaboration 21 Remember: JupyterHub is Authenticated and Persistent.
