When navigating to a Workspace, users are presented with multiple workspace options.
BDC-Gen3 Workspace Page
The Gen3 platform offers two workspace environments: Jupyter Notebooks and R Studio.
There are six workspaces:
Virtual machines (VM):
Small Jupyter Notebook VM
Large Jupyter Notebook Power VM
R Studio VM
Pre-made workflow workspaces:
Autoencoder Demo
CIP Demo
Tensorflow-Pytorch.
To start a workspace, select Launch. You will see the following launch loading screen.
Launch loading screen
Launching a VM can take up to five minutes depending on the size and complexity of the workspace.
Once the VM is ready, the initial screen for the workspace will appear. For scripts and output that need to be saved when the workspace is terminated, store those files in the pd/ directory.

This workspace will persist once the user has logged out of the BDC-Gen3 system. If the workspace is no longer being used, terminate the workspace by selecting Terminate Workspace at the bottom of the window. You will be returned to the Workspace page with all of the workspace options.
