Jupyter Lab

Enterprise Feature

The Jupyter Lab application is available under the ClearML Enterprise plan

The Jupyter Lab UI application allows you to launch a remote Jupyter Lab session on a machine that better meets resource needs. This feature provides a local link to access Jupyter Lab on a remote machine over a secure and encrypted SSH connection, letting you use the IDE as if you're running on the target machine itself.

The Jupyter Lab session is set up using a ClearML Agent. When configuring an app instance, select a queue, and the agent servicing that queue will download and launch the IDE on its machine. When the server setup is complete, the dashboard displays a link to access the Jupyter Lab session.

Once you have launched an app instance, you can view the following information in its dashboard:

  • App status indicator
    • Jupyter loading - Remote IDE is setting up
    • Jupyter active - Remote IDE is active
    • Jupyter idle - Remote IDE is idle
    • Jupyter stopped - Remote IDE is stopped
  • Open IDE - link to the IDE session
  • Idle time
  • Server's resources monitoring (CPU / GPU / vMem utilization)
  • Console - The console log shows the instance's activity, including server setup progress, server status changes
