Currently, https://cube.chrisproject.org is being powered by a VM called fnndsc.childrens.harvard.edu in the Boston Children Hospital network's DMZ. It's been working well for us through the years, however its 480GB disk frequently runs out of space. For more storage, easier deployments, and stability, we want to try migrating this instance of the ChRIS backend to the NERC's OpenShift cluster.

As part of the Scientific Computing in Rust 2023 series, Jennings presents a lightning talk explaining his choice of the using the language Rust to develop a command-line client for the medical compute platform ChRIS. The language features of Rust, in addition to its rich ecosystem of high quality libraries, makes it a productive choice for developing CLI tools and prototyping experiments.
