Science at Light Speed: Cloud Native Infrastructure for Astronomy Workloads

Keynote presentation exploring how the Swiss SKA Regional Center (CHSRC) utilizes Kubernetes and cloud-native tools to support data-intensive astronomy workloads for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project. Discover how this global collaboration is constructing the world's largest radio telescope and leveraging Kubernetes as a service management plane. Learn about example cluster setups, integration with external storage and compute services, and infrastructure designs suitable for multiple sites. This talk from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe provides valuable insights for both Kubernetes beginners seeking guidance and intermediate users interested in scientific cloud-native applications. The presentation is delivered by Carolina Lindqvist, System Specialist at EPFL, and runs for 14 minutes.
