Data Assimilation

Nirav Raje edited this page Apr 7, 2022 · 4 revisions

We explored different approaches for NASA MERRA data ingestion and finalized on using subset APIs with aggregation.

We first break down the data into small chunks and then convert them into a cloud-friendly JSON format for ease of transfer within our microservice architecture. We are currently storing the processed JSON data in our Redis store which we have configured to be persistent.

Our frontend will utilize a polling mechanism to query our intermediate Redis data set.

Security Note: We have configured Kubeseal on our master node such that it uses private key of master to perform encryption of the secret values provided in the Kubernetes YAML file. Thus, our NASA credentials are not exposed in our GitHub repository.
