This month we're highlighting an exciting keynote announcement for our upcoming User Meeting, reproducibility work at FAST 2026, a new webinar recording, and several platform updates including improvements to Trovi, cc-snapshot, CHI@Edge, and python-chi.

Teaching cloud computing without tying students to a single vendor is harder than it sounds. Dr. Michael MacLeod at Austin Community College found a solution in Chameleon, and the results speak for themselves: 14 courses, 420 students, and a curriculum that's still growing. Read more in the blog.

Two PhD students selected through the Reproducibility Ambassador program funded by the NSF REPETO project are heading to FAST '26 to share how researchers can package and reproduce their experiments using Chameleon Trovi. Join them on February 24th and 25th to see it in action.

Since KVM@TACC now requires bounded reservations, VM instances and their data are deleted when reservations end. While snapshots can preserve entire instances, persistent volumes offer a more flexible solution for storing experiment scripts and data that persists independently of your VM lifecycle. This guide walks through creating volumes via the GUI, partitioning and mounting storage, and extending volumes as your storage needs grow.

Registration is now open for the 6th Chameleon User Meeting (April 15-16, 2026) at NCAR Mesa Lab in Boulder, CO!
