What is the preferred way to use datajoint on a cluster?

[zhenruiliao]

Currently I can submit a job to multiple nodes in a cluster (where all nodes have access to the MySQL server, have the same environment etc.) using a script that calls populate with job reservation, but this feels somewhat suboptimal because I would have to know how many cores each node has and manually specify the number of processes requested for each one

This is a great question! This is solved by the full platform that uses the DataJoint Python library. Please feel free to reach out to set this up. https://github.com/datajoint/datajoint-specs/blob/main/SPECS_2_0.md#open-source-development-and-the-datajoint-standard
