Overview
The CCU provides access to state-of-the-art infrastructure for GPU-based machine learning frameworks based on nVidia GPUs. This page gives a general overview and links to more in-depth tutorials on how to work with the cluster. There is some overhead involved when writing code for your projects and you have to stick to a few guidelines, but there are template projects and scripts provided so that you can get started with minimal knowledge about the technical background of the GPU cluster.
What you need
- An account for the CCU.
- Ideally, a desktop PC with an nVidia GPU to test your code before pushing it to the cluster (debugging can otherwise be hard).
- Your PC ideally runs a flavor of Linux, all example scripts were tested against Ubuntu 18.04 (should also work on derivatives, such as Mint 19).
- Admin access to your own PC to install lots of stuff (or a friendly administrator).
- More specific needs will be covered in the in-depth tutorials.
How to get started
- Step 1:
