DRE Beginner sessions

Are you a Radboudumc employee and do you need some help navigating the DRE? Then sign up for a DRE tutorial session!

Gain hands-on experience with the DRE during a 1,5-hour session. We start this session with a short presentation and demo to show the basic features of the Digital Research Environment. The majority of the session will be devoted to gaining hands-on experience within our demo workspace or your own workspace, by following a step-by-step guide with operations that are commonly used in the DRE. During this part, there is room for questions.

DRE Advanced sessions

For our more advanced users we dive deeper into the possibilities of the DRE. Attendees are welcome to suggest which topics they would like to learn more about during this session. Some example topics that can be discussed are:
- Managing workspace costs
- Accessing services and websites from a VM
- Data transfer using external programs
- Blob storage
- Creating VM templates
- Spot VMs
