Containerize data analysis with Docker & Apptainer

In this workshop, you will dive into container technologies - Docker and Apptainer - that enhance the portability and reproducibility of analysis workflows. You'll learn how to create containers from scratch, share them with others, and reuse or adapt existing ones. After an in-depth introduction to Docker, we will also explore Apptainer (formerly Singularity) and its application in High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. 

 

Learning outcomes

  • Run Docker containers using volumes and ports
  • Write and build Docker recipes and images
  • Explain key differences between Docker and Apptainer
  • Convert and use Docker images as Apptainer images
  • Run Apptainer containers in an HPC environment
