CyVerse User Guide
Store, share, and analyze research data with CyVerse: the Data Store, the Discovery Environment and its interactive apps, cloud services, and AI tools.
-
Getting started
What CyVerse is, creating a free account, subscription tiers, and where to get help.
-
Data Store
Keep, move, share, and publish research data on CyVerse's iRODS-based storage, from the browser or the command line.
-
Command-line transfers
Move large datasets with GoCommands or iCommands, or connect any SFTP or WebDAV client.
-
Discovery Environment
A browser-based data science workbench: find and launch apps, manage analyses, and integrate your own containerized tools.
-
Interactive apps (VICE)
RStudio, JupyterLab, VS Code, Cloud Shell, and Linux desktops that run in your browser with the Data Store mounted.
-
Artificial intelligence
GPU notebooks for PyTorch and TensorFlow, private LLMs with Ollama, AI Verde, and an MCP server for AI agents.
-
Cloud services
Infrastructure as code with CACAO on Jetstream2, event-driven DataWatch listeners, and the Harbor container registry.
-
Education
Teach a class on CyVerse, join a workshop, or work through a science tutorial such as DNA Subway.
