DESCRIPTION:Scientific tools often require installing different dependencie
 s in a controlled environment. Containers allow you to logically package y
 our application together with libraries and other dependencies\, providing
  isolated environments for running your software services. Containerized a
 pplications can be run in an isolated runtime environment independent of t
 he actual environment (e.g.\, private data center\, the public cloud\, or 
 even a developer’s personal laptop) in which the applications are runnin
 g in. These are recently gaining popularity as a standard way to distribut
 e\, deploy\, and run services by developers and system administrators. Thi
 s course will introduce the basic concepts of containers and their deploym
 ent in supercomputing environment at CSC.Expected learning in this courseB
 asic understanding of containers is necessary to work with containerized s
 cientific applications. This course will introduce the fundamentals of con
 tainers\, focusing on their deployment in an HPC environment.In this cours
 e\, you will learn:- The essential concepts of HPC containers- The basics 
 of building and running containers- Deploying containerized applicationsPl
 ease note: This course is aimed to be beginner-friendly and we won't be fo
 cusing on advanced topics such as MPI and GPU. Pre-requisitesOne should b
 e comfortable working with the command line environment in Linux\, be able
  to use any common editors (e.g.\, vi\, nano\, or emacs\, etc.) and have s
 ome familiarity with HPC environment.So\, the ideal candidates for this co
 urse are:- Computational scientists from any discipline - Ones with basic 
 Linux skills and/or basics of HPC environmentExpected way of learning- Lec
 tures- Hands-on exercisesWe aim to have lecture and exercise material avai
 lable two weeks before the course.Practicalities (More information will be
  updated here)e-Lena e-learning platform will be used in the course.This i
 s a three half-day course\, from 9 AM to 12 PMCourse Program:6th\, June 20
