Batch Shipyard Recipes

Batch Shipyard can accommodate most containerized Batch and HPC workloads. This area contains recipes and sample container workloads that may relate to your own anticipated scenario. Batch Shipyard is not limited to these programs or types of workloads represented by these recipes, but can run arbitrary containers to execute your Batch and HPC scenario.

Please note that all recipes have sample configurations that you can use to quickly get started, however, some of the config files cannot be used as-is as they may need to be modified for specific values (such as the credentials.yaml file which needs to be populated with your Batch and Storage account credentials). Please review each config file you are planning on using and modify accordingly. As these recipe configuration are intended to show example usage, you will need to modify and configure them for your actual workloads.

If you would like to contribute your recipe, please take a look at this guide before submitting a pull request.
