Onstitute: A Collaborative Online Education Platform with Innoative Data...
summary
Onstitute is a web platform (institute.academy) that gives students hands-on access to real HPC and cloud nodes so they can run TensorFlow and Spark, compare runtimes across a Power9 cluster and Intel/GPU hosts, and pull platform-optimized docker images to run locally. Ten 100‑level courses launch as a beta, courses host shared 100 GB datasets, and deployed use cases include genomic error correction and a blockchain healthcare testbed with measurable publications and industry pilots.
