Docker for Data Science

Monika Obrocka - our speaker

I'm a Research Data Scientist at SKA South Africa, an international project to build the world’s largest and most sensitive radio telescope. In this role I develop the advanced radio frequency interference excision and mitigation techniques to allow for the most sensitive observations.

What will we be doing?

Docker as lightweight virtual machines that are essentially “boxes” of self-contained softwares. I will introduce Docker terminology and how to use Dockerhub. Then we will go through use cases for data science applications

What do you need?

We will be working with Python 3, R and Docker in Linux. More details to follow!
