Transitioning to the Cloud: Insights from the Emirate Mars Mission Science Data System

Description

Science Data Systems (SDS) play a pivotal role in mission ground operations, managing, processing, and disseminating mission-generated scientific data. The LASP Data Systems group has transitioned from traditional monolithic servers to a cloud-based architecture, specifically leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS). In this presentation, we will focus on the architecture of the Emirate Mars Mission's SDS, the first to be fully built and operated within AWS by our group. Developed since 2015 and launched in 2020, this system has successfully been in production for three years. We will discuss the architecture's evolution, the advantages gained from adopting AWS, and lessons learned. Additionally, we will share how these insights are being applied to future NASA-funded projects, including IMAP, CLARREO, and LIBERA. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits and challenges of migrating to a cloud-based SDS, informed by real-world experience.
