1. Cloud environment setup

1.1. Launch AWS Ec2 instance

During the training and the hackathon activities we’ll use a AWS cloud environment. Follow the following steps to launch your Ec2 instance.

  1. SSH in the login instance with this command:

    ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no \
        -o "UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null" \
        login@52.30.76.104
  2. Launch your AWS instance with this command:

    curl -fsSL http://bit.ly/launch-ec2 | bash
  3. When it completes, copy the printed SSH command, exit from the login node (or open a new terminal window) and SSH to the new instance:

    exit
    ssh me@<host-name-printed-in-your-screen>
  4. Clone the following GitHub repository:

    git clone https://github.com/nextflow-io/nf-hack18
    cd nf-hack18
