Hi.
The containers WG is preparing a survey on container runtimes for HPC:
# Containers Working Group for HPC Survey
A survey to get some data on container runtime would be nice. Not only which ones are used, but also what images are used (OCI) and how hardened the feelings are (use of multiple runtimes).
## Introduction
Welcome to the Containers Working Group for High Performance Computing Survey! This survey is provided by the [Containers Working Group](https://supercontainers.github.io/containers-wg/) as a community effort to better understand your use of container technologies. This survey is completely optional, and you are free to stop at any time.
## Questions (early draft)
The `.5` questions are just asking about potential `other` answers we missed.
### About yourself
Just so that we can get a sense
| # | Question | Type | Answers |
|:--:|:---------:|:----:|:---------------------:|
| A1 | What is your primary environment? | single | National Lab, academia, commercial, private research institution, other |
| A2 | What is your primary job? | single | Scientist, Linux Administrator, Research Software Engineer, Manager, other |
| A2.5 | Which function is not listed in A2? | text | |
| A3 | How do you rate your experience with **non-HPC containers**? | single | no experience, beginner, intermediate, expert |
show original
This is still being prepared, the actual survey will be sent later to end users. In the meantime if you have any input for what they survey should be asking for, or changes to what is being proposed above, let them know directly or reply here and i’ll pass the message.
Cheers,
