Simplifying Scientific Application Access in Kubernetes with Push Button Deployments

Published: 08 July 2022 Publication History

Abstract

The Geddes Composable Platform is a Kubernetes-based private cloud resource at Purdue University. To streamline adoption of the platform and lower the barrier to entry, we created push button deployments for some of the popular applications used by Purdue researchers and made them available via Geddes’ Rancher web-based user interface using Helm and Rancher Charts. With little knowledge of the underlying system, a new user can use a web form to deploy custom applications, including JupyterHub instances, Alphafold, CryoSPARC and the Triton Inference Server.
