Notebooks

Notebooks is a cloud platform instantly ready for use, and it is especially well suited for teaching and research. Notebooks provides easy-to-use environments for working with data and programming. 

Different environments based on Jupyter Notebook, RStudio Server and Apache Spark are available via Notebooks. You can access everything via your web browser using your home organisation's Haka or Virtu login, as an alternative to CSC login.

For teachers it is possible to create a teaching environment or produce own teaching materials. Nothing new needs to be installed on University IT maintained machines or students' own laptops.

The use of Notebooks does not require any prior knowledge on programming or system management.
