Red Hat OpenShift Data Science brings you on-demand Jupyter Notebooks environments. Don’t worry if you’ve never used notebooks before as this workshop will start with a small tutorial on what they are and how to use them.

If it’s the first time you’re launching Jupyter, you will be sent to a page that will require you to login and ask for your authorization to use your user account to authenticate to Jupyter. You should of course allow this if you want to do the workshop…​

Once you have authorized access, you will be taken to the JupyterHub "Spawner Options" page.

  • From the "Start a notebook server" page, there are multiple options you can choose from to launch your environment.

    • From the Container size dropdown, select Default.

    • At the bottom of the page you can now click on the Start Server button:
