Cloud Native Geospatial

Emmanuel Belo - May 19 '22 - - Dev Community

I participated with Camptocamp in the Cloud-Native Geospatial Outreach Event organized by the Open Geospatial Consortium in April 2022.

Cloud native solutions are currently a hot topic in the geospatial industry and Camptocamp is participating in the effort of bringing the open-source stack in the cloud. Camptocamp is one of the main open source service providers offering both geospatial and DevOps expertise to it's customers.

As a few examples you can have a look at:

  • The new cloud native version of Geoserver initiated by Camptocamp and donated to the community: Cloud Native Geoserver
  • GeoNetwork research and development initiatives to migrate to Elasticsearch, as a scalable metadata indexing system and the current software architecture migration to microservices: GeoNetwork Microservices
  • Our OGC API STAC implementation in Rust, a very modern and efficient programming language. We initiated this project during last year OGC API code sprint meeting: OGC API Rust Implementation
  • Custom vector tiles generation with Baremaps, a very performant and flexible solution to create your own vector tiles: Baremaps
  • And of course, the many geospatial projects we have been running in the cloud for years, leveraging the power of AWS, Azure, OVH, Deutsche Telekom Cloud and others for reliable and scalable operations.

In addition, our DevOps experts work tirelessly to automate and ease the provisioning and management of cloud servers and services. In this context we released a very interesting infrastructure as code management system, making your geospatial data infrastructure cloud agnostic and called the DevOps Stack.
