Connect from a local laptop to a remote cluster

[YarShev]

Hi guys, is there a way (API) to connect from a local laptop to a remote cluster to execute functions in parallel? Like in Ray - https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/cluster/ray-client.html

Will the following work?

# this notebook is in a local laptop
from distributed.client import Client
c = Client(address="node_ip_of_remote_cluster")

As far as I know, this may work. However, it depends on whether the IP address of the scheduler is reachable from the laptop. So, if your scheduler is on private network (that can't be reached directly from your laptop), you may have some other issues to resolve.
