Elyra is a set of AI-centric extensions to JupyterLab Notebooks.

Elyra currently includes:

• Notebook Pipelines visual editor
• Ability to run a notebook as a batch job
• Hybrid runtime support
• Python script execution capabilities within the editor
• Reusable Code Snippets (Experimental)
• Notebook versioning based on git integration
• Notebook navigation using auto-generated Table of Contents
• Reusable configuration for runtimes

The Elyra Getting Started Guide includes more details on these features.

You can try out some of Elyra features using the My Binder service.

The Elyra Pipeline editor delegates execution of pipelines to remote runtimes. Configure these external runtimes as documented in Runtime Configuration.

After verifying Elyra has been installed, start Elyra with:
