Open Source

We are excited to announce that we have extended our cloud cost dashboards to support display costs filtered by user groups using Grafana! This new feature allows administrators to monitor and manage cloud expenses based on user group memberships in JupyterHub.

Yuvi has a recent post on the Jupyter blog on how his “maintainer intuition” about reviewable pull requests grew into the open-source pr-triage-board-bot, a reusable workflow that keeps GitHub Project boards curated for the JupyterHub, JupyterLab, and GeoJupyter communities.

When migrating documentation from Jupyter Book 1 to Jupyter Book 2, URL structures change dramatically and break external links. We spent some time createing a re-usable tool to solve this problem across multiple projects.

One of our favorite things to see: communities learning from and building on each other’s work! MAAP recently contributed infrastructure configuration inspired by EarthScope’s approach to handling authentication tokens. Both communities need to pass OAuth tokens into user environments so their SDKs can access protected data - and MAAP adapted EarthScope’s pattern to fit their needs.

Documentation is what turns open source code into products that people actually want to use. We recently spent a few days refactoring the Jupyter Book documentation to prepare for the upcoming Jupyter Book 2 release, and we’re excited about how much clearer the docs have become!

The Science Platforms Coordination IHDEA working group (which includes our own Jim Colliander) is developing international standard software computing environments for Heliophysics. The working group recently presented their work at two major conferences: ML-Helio in Madrid and DASH/IHDEA in San Antonio.

We’re thrilled to announce that the Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS) has joined as 2i2c’s first premier member organization! This partnership marks a significant milestone in our sustainability strategy and recognizes a relationship that’s been central to 2i2c’s story from the very beginning.

NASA Openscapes mentors recently hosted a workshop attended by 401 participants from 68 countries to learn how to use airborne data and machine learning for environmental research! They gave participants computational environments on a community hub managed by 2i2c to teach skills in data science like image classification with airborne spectroscopy and accessing data from NASA JPL AVIRIS-NG data from Earthdata cloud.

As I attend the CZI Open Science 2025 meeting, it’s a good moment to reflect on the many ways CZI has positively impacted both 2i2c and the Jupyter Project. The funders who support organizations like 2i2c and Jupyter have a difficult task.

We love when collaborators contribute back to the tools we maintain! Andy Teucher from OpenScapes recently fixed a documentation issue in jupyter-sshd-proxy that benefits everyone using the tool. jupyter-sshd-proxy is a tool originally created by Yuvi to help 2i2c communities connect to their JupyterHub instances via SSH.
