Lindsey Heagy - Project Jupyter and James Colliander - Syzygy

Lindsey gives a brief talk about JupyterHub in for research & education and talking about projects like Callysto & Pangeo and how these will evoke the need for a strategy for higher education for interactive computing (like Jupyterhub). Some of you may recall that Lindsey spoke at our first meetup last year: https://cto.berkeley.edu/cloud/meetup/2019-03-26 - we were thrilled to have her back! 

James Colliander (Director of the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical sciences) launched Canada's national JupyterHub infrastructure Syzygy. James presents on the future of interactive computing including how Jupyter's future could play out internationally via consortia of institutions collaborating on delivering and consuming common infrastructure.
