Description
Summary:"EOSDIS is working toward a vision of a cloud-based, highly flexible system to meet its ever-growing and evolving data demands. Cumulus, a free and open source framework, supports this vision via configurable workflows to ingest, process, archive, manage, and distribute NASA's Earth imagery. The Cumulus infrastructure is designed for scalability and reliability, using much of the AWS serverless platform, which enables Cumulus to scale in real time to be performant under the largest expected workloads. EOSDIS is working toward a vision of a cloud-based, highly flexible system to meet its ever-growing and evolving data demands. Cumulus, a free and open source framework, supports this vision via configurable workflows to ingest, process, archive, manage, and distribute NASA's Earth imagery. The Cumulus infrastructure is designed for scalability and reliability, using much of the AWS serverless platform, which enables Cumulus to scale in real time to be performant under the largest expected workloads. Aimee Barciauskas (Development Seed) outlines the motivation for Cumulus, the achievements and hurdles of the past two years, and its varied applications. You'll learn about the availability of the open-sourced software and how NASA intends to make its Earth Observing Geospatial data available for free to the public in the cloud."--Resource description page
