Coiled Cluster Launch

Coiled clusters let teams run familiar Python on cloud Dask workers. The practical decisions are region, hardware, worker count, software, and shutdown behavior.

Minimal launch

import coiled

cluster = coiled.Cluster(
    n_workers=20,
    region="us-west-2",
)
client = cluster.get_client()

Launch checklist

• Run near the data.
• Pick VM memory for partition or chunk size.
• Name the owner and workload.
• Make idle shutdown explicit.

Good default

Start small, inspect the dashboard, and scale based on measured bottlenecks.
