Cloud-Native Data in Natural and Engineering Sciences

CLOUD‑NES:Facilitating cloud-native data access and processing for Natural and Engineering Sciences, project aims to stimulate the use of cloud-native methods for publishing, accessing, and processing research data efficiently. The project will demonstrate the benefits of cloud-native approaches with reproducible benchmarks by using geospatial data as a case study, and provide training and guidance to researchers, research supporters, and data publishers to facilitate the use of cloud-native best practices.

CLOUD-NES

Join the first CLOUD‑NES symposium to identify gaps, barriers, and priorities for cloud-native data access and processing in the NES domain!

Be part of CLOUD-NES: Facilitating Cloud-Native Data Access and Processing for Natural and Engineering Sciences, an initiative dedicated to advancing efficient, scalable, and reproducible research through cloud-native approaches.CLOUD-NES stimulates the adoption of cloud-native methods for publishing, accessing, and processing research data. Using geospatial data as a case study, the project demonstrates the benefits of cloud-native workflows through reproducible benchmarks. In addition, it provides practical training and guidance to researchers, research support staff, and data publishers to help embed cloud-native best practices across the Natural and Engineering Sciences (NES) domain.<h4>Why attend?</h4>This symposium brings together stakeholders from research, data infrastructures, and policy to:<ul><li>Identify gaps, barriers, and priorities for cloud-native data access and processing in NES</li><li>Align national needs with international best practices and infrastructures</li><li>Build a national stakeholder network connecting data providers, researchers, infrastructures, and policy actors</li></ul><h4>What to expect</h4><ul><li>Inspiring keynote presentations on the importance and impact of cloud-native data</li><li>Stakeholder perspectives highlighting real-world challenges and opportunities</li><li>Interactive breakout sessions to define key gaps, needs, and potential solutions</li><li>A forward-looking panel discussion to help shape the path ahead</li></ul>Whether you are a researcher, data steward, infrastructure provider, or policymaker, your perspective is essential. Join us to help shape a more efficient, interoperable, and future-proof data ecosystem for Natural and Engineering Sciences.Let's build the cloud-native future together!

The project "CLOUD-NES: Facilitating Cloud-Native Data Access and Processing for Natural and Engineering Sciences" with file number ICT.001.TDCC.016 of the research programme NWO TDCC Fund 2023-2 is financed by the Dutch Research Council (NWO)

Agenda

Registration

Welcome and opening

Inspiring keynotes on cloud-native data at scale and community perspectives, with a focus on what does cloud-native mean in practice (Moderator: Francesco Nattino, NLeSC).

Keynote talks: why cloud-native data?

Coffee break

Short presentations to provide insights on where are we already cloud-native and where are we still locked to downlod-and-analyse paradigms (Moderator: Maarten Plieger, KNMI).

Stakeholder perspectives: challenges in practice

Lunch

An interactive session to map the current landscape, where participants share experiences and insights to capture the status quo of cloud-native data access (Moderator: Serkan Girgin, UT)

Interactive session

Parallel breakout sessions to identify needs, gaps, and potential solutions on cloud-native data access, interoperability, publishing, compute, and skill training.

Breakout sessions

Moderated panel with short interventions from participants on what should happen in the next two years and what could be the role of the community? (Moderator: Martin Brandt, SURF)

Panel discussion: framing the road ahead

Wrap-up and next steps, including a position paper.
