Weathering the Cloud for Faster Forecasting #weather #noaa #cloudcomputing Weathering the Cloud for Faster Forecasting While the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was created officially in 1970, its roots go back more than 200 years. The agencies that came together to form NOAA represent some of the oldest federal agencies. So much history, so much research, so much science, so much data…so little time. Every day, NOAA gathers more than 20 terabytes from Doppler radar systems, weather satellites, buoy networks and stations, tide gauges, real-time weather stations, ships and aircraft. That equates to creating more than twice the data contained in the United States Library of Congress – every day.

In my first two blog posts in this series, Part 1 and Part 2, I covered many general aspects of how to use the SoftLayer API effectively. In this post, we'll dive into how to order SoftLayer resources using the SoftLayer API. [For ordering virtual servers, read Simplified CCI Creation for a great explanation of the simplified virtual server ordering process.]Understanding How to Order SoftLayer Resources First, it is probably obvious, but to order a resource means to begin renting it, and to cancel a resource means to stop renting it. Some more terminology is necessary: What you actually order is called a product package since a SoftLayer resource is usually made up of many piece parts. Each part of a package is identified by a category,... Read More IBM Technical Rock Star Program
