Introduction

The Interactive Notebooks Service is based on JupyterHub, enabling remote use of Jupyter Notebooks in a managed environment integrated with other services in EOSC and particularly in the EOSC EU Node.

...

• Authentication and Authorization -- – Interactive Notebooks users need to secure access through the EOSC Portal, and obtain credits for notebooks resource use. Once logged into the environment, a token is available for you to access additional services (compute or data sources) within the ecosystem at at /var/run/secrets/oidc/access_token

• File Sync’n’share storage -- – a shared network drive is mounted as your home in Interactive Notebooks, so that your data are always kept safe even if you interrupt your work.

• Add-ons and extensions installed in the environment

  • jupyter-resource-usage -- – Jupyter Extension to show resource usage

  • nb_conda_kernels -- – Launch Jupyter kernels for any installed conda environment

  • nbgitpuller -- Jupyter Extension to do one-way synchronization of git repositories

• Software and libraries
  • An extended extended list of libraries pre-installed in the environment is provided as a separate document.
• Real-Time collaboration extension – allows interactive collaboration by multiple users over a shared JupyterLab environment.

users = r.json()
