Zusammenfassung:
EarthScope Data Services, a merger of UNAVCO and IRIS data activities, has been supporting the international seismological and geodetic research communities for many decades. Historically, the seismological and geodetic facilities independently managed data repositories on self-managed systems. As a component of merger activities, we have established a project to design, develop and implement a common, cloud-based platform. Goals of this Common Cloud Platform (CCP) project include operational improvements such as cost-effectiveness, robustness, on-demand scalability, significant growth potential and increased adaptability for new data types.The migration and combination of the data facilities to a cloud computing environment represents a major evolution that will benefit researchers, data contributors, and EarthScope data managers. Researchers and other data users will benefit from the increased capacity, flexibility, new services, and adjacency to nearly unlimited compute. We will be developing training materials and conducting workshops to help data users to take full advantage of the platform, in particular the option of processing data in the cloud which avoids slow transfer across the internet. The new platform will also support hazard assessment and mitigation through continued open data access policies, and in particular by operating the geodetic data collection and initial product generation for the US ShakeAlert system.The project is currently in a development stage, and we anticipate having a demonstration platform partially operational in mid-2023 and fully operational by the end of the year. We will report on the status of the project, as well as anticipated directions and challenges identified so far.
