Slicer in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) with GPU support

Key Investigators

• Steve Pieper (Isomics)
• Christian Herz (Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia)

Project Description

Running Slicer on Google Cloud Platform with GPU support WITHOUT using dockerized images

Objective

Replicate Slicer running GCP machine with instructions and write them down for the public

Important notes:

• The instructions don’t account for security concerns so don’t put any data or passwords on the virtual machine if you need to keep them secret.
• The Google Cloud Platform costs real money once your free trial is over. Be sure to shut down anything you aren’t using or your credit card will eventually be charged.
• Be careful with your login information. If someone takes over your account they could run up a huge bill that you will be responsible for paying.

Approach and Plan

1. Replicate installation process on machines
2. Write detailed instructions
