Shreyas Cholia, Rollin Thomas, and Shane Canon share their experience leveraging JupyterHub to enable notebook services for data-intensive supercomputing on the Cray XC40 Cori system at the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC).

Data exploration usually entails making endless one-use exploratory plots. Victor Zabalza shares a Python package based on dask execution graphs and interactive visualization in Jupyter widgets built to overcome this drudge work. Victor offers an overview of the tool and explains how it was built and why it will become essential in the first steps of every data science project.
