HOWTO: Use Docker and Singularity Containers at OSC

It is now possible to run Docker and Apptainer/Singularity containers on all clusters at OSC. Single-node jobs are currently supported, including GPU jobs; MPI jobs are planned for the future.

From the Docker website:  "A container image is a lightweight, stand-alone, executable package of a piece of software that includes everything needed to run it: code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, settings."

Podman

Podman is an Open Containers Initiative (OCI)‑compliant, daemonless and rootless container tool developed by Red Hat. Unlike Docker, Podman operates without a central daemon and supports secure rootless execution, making it well‑suited for HPC environments and schedulers such as Slurm. 

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

Podman is available on all OSC clusters. Only one version is available at any given time. To find out the current version:

Ruby

Ruby is a dynamic, open source programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity.

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of ruby are available on OSC clusters:

AlphaFold 3

AlphaFold 3 developed by DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs, is an advanced artificial intelligence system that predicts the 3D structures of proteins and their interactions with other molecules, including DNA, RNA, ligands, and ions.

Rust

Rust is a general-purpose programming language with an emphasis on performance, type safety, and concurrency. It enforces memory safety without a traditional garbage collector, preventing data races and memory safety errors via the "borrow checker". The Rust module provides rustc and cargo.

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of Rust are available on OSC clusters:
