Anaconda Notebooks

What it is
Anaconda Notebooks puts JupyterLab in a cloud environment for writing, editing, and running Python code through an Anaconda Cloud account. Users can start data science and AI projects in a browser with packages and computing resources supplied by the service, without installing Python locally. Two preconfigured environments are available: one with the latest Anaconda Distribution packages and another with packages selected for AI workflows. Notebooks can be shared by URL so others can open a copy, work with it through an Anaconda account, or download it. Outputs can be deployed as web applications using Panel. Anaconda Assistant for Python can analyze tables and suggest ways to work with data, while Data Connectors let users save CSV files on Anaconda Cloud for Excel or notebook access. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 5 GB cloud storage. Starter costs $15 a month, billed monthly, with 10 GB storage per user. Organizations may block notebook sharing, resulting in a 403 error when a user tries to share.
