FAQPage Schema
How do I launch a GPU-enabled Jupyter notebook for ML workloads?

You launch a GPU-enabled Jupyter notebook by selecting optional CUDA images and specifying required resources on your infrastructure platform. This provides persistent storage for environments and seamless ML development capabilities.

Can I keep my Jupyter notebook environment and files persistent across restarts?

Jupyter notebook persistent storage keeps your /home/jovyan directory and user environments intact across restarts. This ensures your exploratory data analysis and model prototyping work remains saved when sessions auto-shutdown.

Do I need specific environment variables configured to deploy a notebook workspace?

Deploying a notebook workspace requires configuring TFY_BASE_URL and TFY_API_KEY environment variables. You also need a valid workspace FQN to route operations through correct image variants and resource allocations.

Does Jupyter notebook deployment support VS Code integration and auto-shutdown?

Jupyter notebook deployment supports both VS Code integration and auto-shutdown. Auto-shutdown optimizes infrastructure costs by terminating idle sessions, while health verification maintains reliability.

What is the best way to deploy a notebook via CLI or REST API instead of the UI?

To deploy a notebook without the UI, use CLI commands or REST API fallback operations after validating your environment variables and workspace FQN. This routes operations through correct image variants and resource allocations.
