What Is a Workspace?

A workspace is a Cloud Development Environments (CDEs) available for coding and data science. Workspaces can be accessed using a cloud IDE or through an SSH connection from a local installed IDE.

Workspaces are running online on top of a virtual machine and managed using a container orchestrator for resilience. The performance of a workspace, i.e. compute and storage capabilities, are set by the specifications of the underlying virtual machine.

Workspaces are technically speaking virtual processes, with the aim of replacing the use of a virtual machine for code development and data science. They are lightweight and so that they can be started and paused much quicker than a VM counterpart.

A Workspace is defined by the following characteristics:

• Basic Information: such as name, owner, sharing options,
• CPU/RAM/Storage: performance allotted to the workspace.
• Ports: ports to run applications on,
• Status: i.e.running, deploying, or paused
