Galaxy Europe conducted the [Galaxy Admin Training (GAT) 2023](https://galaxyproject.org/events/2023-admin-training/) in Ghent Belgium this year from April 17th till 21st and invited experts and senior admins with several years of experience in maintaining Galaxy to share the ins and outs of setting up an own production quality Galaxy server and various other services. The training was attended by 16 participants from different countries and backgrounds.

The training covered the basic and advanced topic needed to know to setup and maintain a production, high-performance and multi-user Galaxy instance. During the one week intensive hands-on training session participants were introduced to Ansible a configuration management system, which is used to automate the installation and configuration of Galaxy and its dependencies. The training also covered the installation of various other services such as tusd, CVMFS, containers, tool management, reference datasets, meta-schedulers such as Total Perspective Vortex (TPV), job schedulers, pulsar, celery among others.
