// Cloud Computing 

Cloud computing offers customizable operating environments that enable researchers to process and analyze large datasets using the analytics solution of their choice. Clouds are also adept at hosting online services, including those for sharing data and documents.

Cloud computing is well-suited for both large-scale, loosely coupled jobs and small-scale, tightly coupled jobs. Applications include:

  • Data analysis and sharing
  • Document development and sharing
  • Image rendering
  • Visualization
  • Web-based data servicing

// Explore/ADAPT Science Cloud

Explore combines high-performance computing and virtualization technologies to create an on-site private cloud. This managed virtual machine (VM) environment is specifically designed for large-scale data analytics. The system allows scientists and engineers to bring their applications to the data and define the environment in which those applications run. In some cases, curated science results may be stored for future analysis or shared with other users.

// Science Managed Cloud Environment (SMCE)

The Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST) program within the Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO) identifies, develops, and demonstrates advanced information system technologies to meet the emerging requirements across the Earth Science Division (ESD). A critical component of the success of AIST projects is access to cost effective, flexible, and scalable compute and storage infrastructure. The Science Managed Cloud Environment (SMCE) is a managed Amazon Web Service (AWS) based infrastructure for NASA funded projects that can leverage cloud computing capabilities.

// Cloud Bursting (through ADAPT)

ADAPT is able to facilitate cloud bursting into a commercial cloud service, providing access to vast amounts of virtual machines for processing user data. While this reduces a project’s duration, there are significant costs associated with data retrieval and data-at-rest. Therefore, it is imperative that users develop an in-depth data processing plan and have the resources allocated before starting to work with a commercial cloud provider.
