Can NITRC-CE be installed on private cloud?
Hi,

I'm part of an organization that is interested in evaluating the NITRC-CE platform. We need a solution that would work at our own HPC facility to run our own cloud based analytics service.

Can NITRC-CE be adapted to this? Are there other solutions by NITRC for what we're looking for?

Thanks!

Mr. Jeanson,

  We have been working on a script that turns a general Ubuntu 12.04 instance (say, on a VM) into a NITRC-CE environment. We are developing this script to make our lives easier as promote changes to our multiple API versions. Would that be of interest to you for your experimentation? If so, we'd be happy to share it with you once it is ready...

Thank you,

That's a great initiative. Yes I think we would certainly be interested in testing the platform.
Please inform me when you have a stable version available. I'll coordinate with our developers to proceed on testing it out.

All the best!

Dear Mr. Jeanson:

  I'm happy to announce that we released a beta version of our NITRC-CE install script in our NITRC Enhanced Services Downloads Area. From our Release Notes:

The purpose of the NITRC-CE install script is to convert any Ubuntu 12.04 machine (real or virtual) into a NITRC-CE instance. Since it will install a number of packages including ubuntu-desktop and packages from NeuroDebian, it may take many hours to execute, and will restart your system at least once. A log of its progress will be placed in /var/lib/nitrcce/.

Once completed, you will be able to use a web browser to connect to the machine and set up a NITRC-CE user. Please see http://www.nitrc.org/ce/ for full usage instructions.


Please let us know if you have any problems or suggestions!

Thanks,
Robert Buccigrossi
