Hello everyone,
Docker, a containerization platform that helps make software more
portable, recently changed its licensing model. This change may affect
us. JLab IT would like to know how many of us are using Docker Desktop
for dedicated JLab work on CUE systems or elsewhere (personal laptop,
desktop, etc.) so IT can evaluate the need for purchasing appropriate
licenses.
If you use (or plan to use) Docker Desktop for JLab work, please send me
a quick reply. Ideally, please include a few details, like the main
application (experiment, project) and platform/location for which/where
you're using Docker.
To be clear, these changes do not affect Singularity/Apptainer, which is
a completely different and non-commercial application.
Thanks for your time, and best regards,
Ole
