⚠️ IMPORTANT: Ephemeral Storage Warning
All BinderHub sessions and storage are temporary (ephemeral). Local files, installed packages, and modified code are permanently lost when a session ends. This includes when sessions time out due to inactivity, are closed, or crash (e.g., due to user error or Out-Of-Memory / OOM kills). You must save your work externally by committing and pushing changes back to your remote Git repository, downloading files to your local machine, or exporting data to external cloud storage before ending your session. Review the SLA for additional information.
BinderHub is a kubernetes-based cloud service that allows users to share reproducible interactive computing environments from code repositories. It is the primary technology behind mybinder.org built upon the Jupyter and JupyterHub projects.
While both JupyterHub and BinderHub are designed to provide computing environments for multiple users on demand and at scale, there are a couple of key differences. JupyterHub provides pre-built images, where BinderHub builds and deploys images from a code (git) repository in an ephemeral (non-persistent) environment. Practically, at UCSB College of Letter&Science, that means they're geared towards different outcomes.
