Опубликовано 13 октября 2015, 0:23

An 80-year old startup, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory continues to be a driving source of innovation in American technology. The past decade of this trek included NASA's expedition into cloud computing, seeing the delivery of cloud building blocks, initial applications, and a boom of higher order opportunities. These successes have begun to feed forward into enterprises and growing startups, while NASA continues to blaze a trail ahead.

This talk by three of NASA's cloud explorers discusses what made this journey possible, how it was executed, and what lies ahead. In this session, Tom Soderstrom, chief technology and innovation officer for IT at NASA JPL, talks about how NASA thinks about innovation, the role of cloud computing in the innovation cycle, and how NASA took cloud computing from prototyping to playing a mission-critical role across the organization. You also hear from two influential JPL alumni who spread—and amplified—the approach. Come and hear the impact that cloud computing is having on science, discovery, and innovation, how missions at NASA are using cloud computing today, and where it is going in the future.
