Singularity container platform on DICE.

Singularity container platform is now available on Ubuntu DICE.

Singularity is a container platform, perhaps the most well-supported Docker alternative. It allows you to run containers that package up pieces of software in a way that is portable and reproducible. You can build or download pre-built images from external resources (including Docker Hub) and run them on DICE. Singularity is currently available on all Ubuntu Teaching Cluster nodes (landonia nodes).
