Overview

Nectar have packaged some cloud-ready applications into the Application Catalog available from your Nectar dashboard. You can browse the catalog and compose your own application environments running on the Nectar Research Cloud.

In this tutorial you’ll step through the Quick Deploy process for configuring and deploying an application from the catalog. Our example will be an R-Studio application. It gives secure access to a community edition R-Studio server, Shiny server as well as remote-desktop-based access via either your browser or X2Go.
