# Generalities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We propose a solution allowing collaborators to run resource intensive processes (e.g. extractors in notices databases) on a remote server rather than their own personal computers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The server runs VNC environments packaged as Docker containers. Collaborators can connect to their own VNC container through their favorite Web browser and interact with the server through a friendly desktop, “as if” they were on their local computer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The VNC containers embed all useful peaces of software, like extraction scripts, MySQL Workbench, etc.

|
## Remote VNC desktop environment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users can access the server through a remote graphical environment featuring the LXDE desktop. It is visually close to the MS Windows environment so the collaborators won’t have to change their working habits.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A docker container is dedicated for each country or collaborator, which means that the collaborators of one country will not be able to mess up the data of another country.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All containers runs the same image, which includes all the dependencies required for your existing scripts. |
