8. Conclusion

Congratulations!

In this tutorial, you have:

  • Understood what Dask clusters are.
  • Created a Dask cluster, utilising the same Conda environment as your notebook.
  • Started the Dask client in a notebook.
  • Accessed the Dask dashboard.
  • Performed a Dask calculation.
  • Deleted the Dask cluster.

It is also possible to access the Data Store from your Dask cluster, just as you would from your notebook; and to create a 'vanilla' Dask cluster, that doesn't require a pre-existing Conda environment.
