Integrating SCONE Python API with Google Colab

Post by Ali Forouzanfar » Wed Mar 20, 2024 1:22 am

Hi,
I am interested in leveraging the SCONE Python API for my project and considering using Google Colab as my development environment. I have a few questions and am seeking advice from those who may have experience with this setup:

Is it technically and practically feasible to use SCONE in Google Colab, and if so, how can one set it up for optimal performance?
Has anyone successfully integrated the SCONE Python API with Google Colab? Could you share your experience, particularly any challenges you encountered during the integration process?
What specific setup or configuration steps are necessary to ensure the SCONE Python API functions smoothly in the Colab environment?

Your insights and suggestions will be invaluable in helping me utilize SCONE effectively in Google Colab. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I have no experience using Google Colab, but if you can get the basic SconePy example to run, you should have no issues performance-wise. The SconePy API directly calls the SCONE C++ code, which handles all the performance-critical tasks.
