Abstract

In the two years since the Fall 2019 meeting, NOAA/NESDIS completed two significant projects whose goal was to prototype an enterprise data management system in the cloud. The two pilot efforts, run by the NESDIS Cloud Integrated Project Team, were completed in March of 2020 and March of 2021. A significant portion of those pilot efforts has been operationalized into what is known as the NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF). The NCCF is now up and running and capable of securely ingesting data and generating operational products. Another effort, the NESDIS Cloud Archive Project, picked up the unfinished work of the NESDIS cloud pilots and is focused on delivering an end-to-end cloud archive prototype in late 2021, with the goal of operationalizing that cloud archive capability into the NCCF in 2022. The current status of these efforts will be presented, including a technical focus on how NESDIS plans to archive data using commercial cloud services.
