Renku has always made it easy to build your project and share it with a collaborator through a simple link. This release takes that a big step further. With Renku Apps, you can now publish your work as a live, always-ready app that opens the instant someone clicks. Starting with this release, we offer Renku project storage: any project can get its own fast, persistent home for its data.
This release extends Renku beyond interactive sessions. You can now submit a job that runs the same code, in the same environment, against the same data — without holding a browser tab open. Also in these releases: custom environments from private code repositories, coding agents in your sessions and dedicated pages for data connectors.
Your data might live on Zenodo, your code on GitHub, and your compute in the cloud — but they shouldn't feel worlds apart. Renku is built to bridge these gaps, and our latest 2.16.0 and 2.17.0 updates make it much easier to work, share, and publish without the configuration headache.
Whether you are running data-intensive computations or preparing a project for public citation, these enhancements keep your project resources tightly connected.
Our mission is to make collaborative data science seamless, regardless of where your data lives or how you choose to compute. Our latest release, 2.15.0, brings us a step closer to that goal with some highly requested data integrations and powerful tools for project admins.
New in Renku for the New Year: We have added new integrations with research data repositories for frictionless data reuse, made it possible to build images for arm architectures, and improved collaboration flows!
New in Renku this month: We've combined Renku's super-simple sessions with the power of supercomputing!
We're excited to share what's new in Renku this month, including a feature many of you have been asking for, plus some important reminders about the end of Renku Legacy coming up in only 2 months!
On August 21, our team executed a major maintenance on our production cluster running at renkulab.io - the entire platform was moved from the servers in Switch Engines to its new home in the Microsoft Azure Switzerland-North datacenter. This was a major operation that took many weeks to plan and in the end resulted in just a few hours of downtime - a huge congrats to our operations team on making everything work so smoothly!
We've been hard at work making Renku Groups more powerful and continuing the smooth transition from Renku Legacy. This release adds much-needed search functionality to groups and includes helpful updates for users migrating from Renku Legacy.
We're thrilled to announce that Renku 2.0 is now officially launched! We've rebuilt our platform from the ground up with a fresh approach to collaborative research computing, and we're excited to share what we've created.
